“調(diào)休”的字面意思就是“調(diào)換休息時(shí)間”，特指“原定休假的時(shí)間不休息而調(diào)換到另外的時(shí)間再休息”，那么在英文中就可翻譯為change one's shift to get leave later。

“短假”英語怎么說？
“短期休假”是指歷時(shí)很短的假期，一般就是指兩三天的短假，在英文中就可用mini-break來表示。
例句：
Winners of the competition will win a three-night mini-break in Paris.
比賽的獲勝者將獲得在巴黎為期三晚的短期休假。
My three-day winter mini-break began on Friday with an evening flight from Heathrow.
我為期三天的冬季短假自周五晚上從希思羅機(jī)場起飛開始。
“請(qǐng)假”英語怎么說？
ask for/ request a leave
leave在這里不是“離開”的意思，而是指“休假”。如果請(qǐng)假不止一天，還可以說ask for two days' leave指“請(qǐng)兩天的假”。
例句：
I have to ask for a leave tomorrow morning.
我明天上午得請(qǐng)假了。
“假條”我們可以說：leave of absence letter。
call in sick
sick作形容詞有“惡心的；生病的”等意思，如果你病得難受想請(qǐng)假，那么可以用call in sick這個(gè)短語，它在《麥克米倫高階英漢雙解詞典》中的英文釋義是：to phone someone at the place where you work to tell them you are too ill to work，表示“打電話（到單位）請(qǐng)病假”。
例句：
I don't feel well this morning. Perhaps I ought to call in sick.
我今天早上感覺不太舒服，或許我該打電話請(qǐng)個(gè)假了。
pull/ throw a sickie
還有一種叫做裝病請(qǐng)假。sickie在俚語里指“病假”，但是throw/ pull a sickie意思則是“裝病請(qǐng)假”。雖然今天學(xué)會(huì)了怎么說，但是可不提倡大家這么做��！
例句：
He pulled/threw a sickie to go to the football game.
他裝病請(qǐng)假看球賽去了。
I just didn't feel like work so I threw a sickie.
我只是不想工作，所以請(qǐng)了病假。
