Да, но если вы поищете "importunate company", то это обычно какая-то назойливая/докучливая компания=фирма. Поэтому я от этого варианта и отказался - чтобы избежать двусмысленности

Alexander Аkimovadded a comment 7 years ago

Я тоже тут долго долбался с этими компаниями и обществами. Надо Ули дождаться, интересно как он это воспримет.

Alexander Аkimovadded a comment 7 years ago

Я написал ему.
Но наверное, Вы правы, раз importunate company так идиоматично. Я бы только Ваше в конце as I am заменил на like me - так обычно говорят.
Подождём Ули...

Согласен - исправляю

Alexander Аkimovadded a comment 7 years ago

Жду ревизии от Ули, а пока пропустил свой вариант через TextRanch с таким комментарием:
["my importunate company" is in question. It is meant to be the speaker himself, ironically, but I'm afraid this may cause a confusion with an organization. Perhaps, "person" or "individual" would be a better choice... Please advise.]
Вот как редактор изменил текст:
I hope I gave you enough time to take a rest from my own company.
Почему-то "importunate" осталось за бортом...
Жду Ули...

Guys, "time to take a break from something" is a RESPITE [rɛ́spɪt]. Consequently "a break to take a rest" is a redundancy - it says the same thing twice. Also, bear in mind that this person is addressing the listener at a point after the break, (or in the middle of it depending on his answer), to check on the (present) progress or result of that break, which started some time before, so the perfect tense is in order.
