今年1月只上班17天,休假天数长达14天,被网友们戏称为“史上最短工作月”。可是临近年终的各种工作堆积,让许多上班族在加班中度过了元旦节,而1月也成为了“疯狂加班月”。网友称“悲催的元旦节,全在加班中度过!”2011年,你是否在加班中结束?2012年,你是否在加班中开始?
“加班”英语怎么说?
现代人似乎人人都加过班,那么大家知道加班用英语怎么说么?最常见的,我听到比较多的一种说法是,work overtime。
这个说法也是对的,但是还有一个短语也表 示“加班”-clean the desk!字面意思看来是“清理桌子”,我们把这个desk当作是办公桌,可能就相对好理解了。
所以,下次如果老外同事对你说他要 clean the desk,不要错以为他是要打扫为生哦:)
今晚我要加班,不用等我吃饭了。”用英语怎么说?一说加班,就会想“加班”是work overtime对不对?
英美人地道表达:I’m working late tonight. So have dinner without me.
抱怨加班的英语口语对话Complaining about overtime
A: You won’t believe who’s been elected to do overtime on the Baker account! Me! I’ve already logged in 20 hours of overtime!
A:你想象不到谁被选中加班做贝克项目了。我!我已经加了20小时班了。
B: Wow! Why so much? I thought they were getting you an assistant.
B:哇!怎么这么长啊?我以为他们要给你派名助手呢!
A: They were supposed to, but so far nobody’s turned up, and I’m left on my own to do the work. This is the first break I’ve had all day.
A:应该是。可是到目前为止还没有人来呢,只剩我一人在做这事。这是我一天来头一次休息。
B: They’re really running you into the ground. Why don’t you ask for some time off? You could take a long weekend and go away somewhere.
B:他们对你有点太过分了。你为什么不请几天假呢?你可以到什么地方度一个长周末。
