make up作为动词词组有“构成、凑足”的意思,以“make-up”为定语的make-up workday就是“补班”。
举个例子:
we have to have a make-up workday this Sunday.
我们必须在这个周日补班。
既然有补班,可想而知也有补假。不过,补假可不是make-up holiday哦,而是compensatory leave。
compensatory leave还有“带薪休假”的意思。当然,“带薪休假”还有一个更简单的表达:paid vacation。
举个例子:
He may get compensatory leave for working overtime.
他加班可以获得补假。
调班可以说成“change shift with your colleague or co-worker”,英文释义:When you change a shift with your co-worker, you can also say: I swap shift with him: to swap something means to exchange or change something.
举个例子:
Would it be OK if I will swap/change my Monday morning shift to Friday morning shift (with you)?
我可以把周一早班换成周五早班吗?
