语法含义
「〜にかこつけて」的意思类似于中文的「借口」或者「以...为借口」。
它用来表示某人为了达到某种目的或者为了掩饰自己的真实意图而找出的理由或借口。
比如，有人为了不去参加聚会，就可能找各种理由推脱，比如说头疼、有事情要处理等等。
这个语法常常用于描述别人的借口或者自己找借口的情况，有时候也带有一些贬义的意味。
英译
The grammar pattern "~にかこつけて" is used to describe a situation where someone uses a certain excuse or pretext to do something.
It implies that the person is using that excuse as a cover or justification for their actions.
For example, if someone says "仕事を休むにかこつけて遊んでいる" (Shigoto o yasumu ni kakokete asondeiru), it means "Playing under the pretext of taking a day off from work", suggesting that the person is using the excuse of taking a day off to play instead.
