After you got the permission from your boss, you'd probably say to your colleagues... ２）今日はいつもより早く帰らせていただきます。/I will go home earlier today Actually, (2)sentence is not really a request. It's just telling the fact (claiming) that you're leaving early in a very polite way."-te itadakimasu" is used when you've already got the permission or right to do something. I agree with you 100%. The way it was written in the pdf is confusing. So I'll have someone to fix it. Thank you for putting the great question.:dogeza: Tako-san
If you’re talking to your boss and asking for a half day off or something…you would say…

Actually, (2)sentence is not really a request. It’s just telling the fact (claiming) that you’re leaving early in a very polite way.”-te itadakimasu” is used when you’ve already got the permission or right to do something.

I agree with you 100%. The way it was written in the pdf is confusing. So I’ll have someone to fix it. Thank you for putting the great question. :dogeza:

I found the explanation about causative+te itadaku a bit confusing. (sorry english is not my native language) :neutral: It is said that it's used for requesting someone's permission. But isn't it causative+te kudasai that is used for request? Then -te itadaku would rather be used to explain that someone recieved permission to do something. In the following exemple: 今日はいつもより早く帰らせていただきます。 I will go home earlier today (because I RECIEVED the permission of doing so.) then to make a request I'd rather say it like that : 今日はいつもより早く帰らせてください。 Please let me go home earlier today. but in the pdf it is said that -te itadaku is used for requesting...did i get something wrong? I don't know, maybe my english is giving me trouble :mrgreen: so please enlighten me by your sacred knowledge :dogeza::kokoro: ja ne! Hi~

I used to always get a slice while I did my laundry at the laundromat. But there was another one I liked. It was just tomato paste and no cheese. Sounds really boring but the tomato sauce was amazing! If you're around NYC, give it a shot. It was on Second Ave around 76th st sachiko My favorite pizza is this definitely plain cheese!
