How do I say "I took a year off from work" in Japanese? For context, I'm on a sabbatical this year, so I'm not working for the year. Instead I'm traveling and learning languages. (Tough life, right?) How do I explain that I still have a job, but I don't have to work this year. I spend all my time studying languages, meeting new people, and exploring the countries I go to.

マーカスさん、こんにちは! I know you have been studying so hard everyday! In that case, I would say like this; 1年間休職して、旅行しながら言語を勉強しています。 (いちねんかん きゅうしょくして、りょこう しながら げんごを べんきょう しています。) I'm on a sabbatical this year, so I'm not working for the year. Instead I'm traveling and learning languages. 旅行先の国では、毎日、言語の勉強をしたり、新しい人と会ったり、あちこち歩き回ったりしています。 (りょこうさきの くにでは まいにち(everyday)、げんごの べんきょうをしたり、あたらしい ひとと あったり、あちこち あるきまわったり しています。) I spend all my time studying languages, meeting new people, and exploring the countries I go to. 休職(きゅうしょく)means a state that an employee still belongs to a company but is not working for any reasons (sickness, private matters, study abroad, etc.) I don't think we Japanese are very familiar with the idea of "sabbatical" but I'd love to if I could ;-) Hope this helps.
