Is this correct?
Do the word 'Absence' and the words 'Absentee/Absenteeism' have the same meanings and usages? Or there are differences between them?
Thanks a lot!

Hi Shaimaa, they all mean being away from someone or something
"Absent" is an adjective.
Ex: The absent boy missed a great party. ("Absent" is describing "boy.")
Ex: She was sad because the boy she likes was absent from class. ("Absent" is describing "boy.")
"Absence" is a noun.
Ex: Your absence is inexcusable. ("Absence" is serving as the subject of this sentence.)
Absenteeism is also a noun
Ex: The boss told me, " I don't appreciate your frequent absenteeism. One more day away and you're fired!" ("Absenteeism" is what you have done.)

Heh. Sneaky subtleties.
Absence = the abstract concept
Absentee = a person (the absent one, obviously)
Absenteeism = the issue of people being absent.

Haha! My own dictionary is on my hands now, I really can't understand the differences between these three words. They have the same meanings but I don't know what's the difference? Help me, teacher Arwa. :)))))
