Hello, English learners and welcome to EnglishPod.

英語學習者們，你們好！歡迎來到 EnglishPod。

Amira and I are here today with another interesting and useful lesson for you English learners.

今天，阿米拉和我將為各位英語學習者帶來另一堂有趣而實用的課程。

Amira, why don't you explain a little bit of what this lesson is about today?

阿米拉，你為什麼不解釋一下今天這節課的內容呢？

每個人偶爾都會遇到這種情況。

You don't feel so well or you feel well, but you don't want to go to work, so you call in sick.

你感覺不舒服，或者你感覺良好，但你不想去上班，所以你請了病假。

And I want everyone to keep their ears open and see if the boss believes this person.

我希望每個人都豎起耳朵，看看老闆是否相信這個人。

事實上，我今天感覺很不舒服。

I have a headache, a sore throat, a runny nose, and I'm feeling slightly feverish.

我頭痛、喉嚨痛、流鼻涕，還有點發燒。

I was hoping to take the day off to recover.

Yes, and Julie didn't sound really sick, huh?

是的，朱莉聽起來並沒有生病，是吧？

Well, we have some really good vocabulary here.

我們這裡有一些非常好的詞彙。

The first phrase I've chosen for you is a very, very useful one.

我為你選擇的第一句話非常非常有用。

Okay, let's look at another really useful phrase.

好了，我們再來看看另一個非常有用的短語。

And this one is, I'm coming down with the flu.

And this phrase means that I am starting to get the flu or I am getting the flu.

這句話的意思是，我開始得流感了，或者我正在得流感。

The next phrase I have for you is calling in sick.

It means calling your boss to tell him that you can't come to work today.

這意味著打電話給你的老闆，告訴他你今天不能去上班了。

I personally love this phrase because it saves so much time and explanations.

我個人非常喜歡這句話，因為它節省了很多時間和解釋。

So, if I say this, then everyone will know that I am not coming to work today.

所以，如果我這麼說，大家就會知道我今天不來上班了。

And the last phrase that we're going to take a look at today is, I was hoping to take the day off.

今天我們要學習的最後一句話是：我本想休息一天。

And she says this to ask for permission because she does not want to go to work.

她這樣說是為了請求允許，因為她不想去上班。

Now, couldn't she just say, like, I can't come today?

She could say, I can't come today, but that would be a little bit impolite.

她可以說，我今天不能來，但這樣做有點不禮貌。

So, when she says, I was hoping to take the day off, it's a polite way of asking.

所以，當她說 "我想請一天假 "時，那是一種禮貌的請求。
