用法說明

authorization to do vs authorization for doing
- "authorization to do" 是最常見且自然的用法，表示允許或授權某人執行某個具體動作。
- "authorization for doing" 較為少見，語法上可行，但聽起來較為笨重或不自然。
- 在正式文件或法律文書中，通常會使用 "authorization to + 動詞" 或名詞片語 "authorization for + 名詞"。
- 被動語態中，如 "be authorized to do"，使用不定詞 "to do" 是唯一正確的選擇。 EN: You need official authorization to access the confidential files. 翻譯: 你需要正式授權才能存取這些機密檔案。
EN:We received authorization for the expenditure from headquarters.
翻譯:我們收到了總部對這筆支出的授權。

'Authorization' is usually an uncountable noun when referring to the general concept or act of giving permission. It is not typically pluralized in this context.
×He has the authorization to access the file.
✓He has authorization to access the file.
The definite article 'the' is often unnecessary before 'authorization' when it refers to general permission rather than a specific, previously mentioned document or instance.
×Please give me an authorize to proceed.

Confusing the noun 'authorization' with the verb 'authorize'. Use the noun form when you need the thing (permission) itself.

✓This action is done with his authorization.
The common collocation is 'with authorization' or 'with someone's authorization' to mean having permission. 'Under authorization' is less common and sounds more formal or legal.

While 'authorization letter' is sometimes used, the more standard and formal phrasing is 'letter of authorization'.
