すこし言い訳してもいい？って英語でなんて言うの？

If you want to give an excuse, it would be a good idea to ask if it is alright to do so first. Sometimes the teacher won't mind, but sometimes they might. Try using, "is it okay to give an excuse" and see what they say. If it is a teacher that you get along well with, they might not mind if you speak a little casually to them. In that case, you can start by saying, "this is totally an excuse, but..." and then give your excuse. - totally = (slang) - absolutely/100%; "This is absolutely an excuse" is also okay. You don't even need to use to word "excuse," though. You can simply say, "I can explain..." and then say what you need to. For example, "I can explain! It's my fault because I didn't read the question to the end."

It is important that you let the teacher know that you are aware of your mistake and that you would like to attempt the question again.

You generally don't ask to make an excuse you can just say whatever your excuse is e.g "I'm not sure I read that correctly". Your teacher will be happy with your honesty and even teachers make mistakes so this is completely natural. Also if you are still learning English it is understandable that many mistakes will be made so using "Can I start again?" and "Is it ok if I try that again?" are great expressions to use in this situation.

Ooops! I did not comprehend the question. Let me read it again please.

"I'm sorry, I don't' think I read this correctly. Can I read this again?" is a slightly formal way of asking for pardon, and if you can read the question again. example: You: "I'm sorry, I don't' think I read this correctly. Can I read this again?" Teacher: "Of course! Take your time." "I think I made a mistake. Can I re-read this question and try to answer again?" is a very direct way of saying you think you made a mistake, and want to try the question again. example: You: "I think I made a mistake. Can I re-read this question and try to answer again?" Teacher: "Yes, of course! Don't worry about it." "Excuse me, can I try to answer this again? I think I read it wrong." is a less formal way to say the previous expression. You are asking if you can try the question again, as you feel you've read it wrong. example: You: "Excuse me, can I try to answer this again? I think I read it wrong." Teacher: "Oh of course! Take ask much time as you need."

If it is a lesson you don't need to make excuses, making mistakes is part of learning.

The reasoning behind wanting to say this is very unclear! If it is homework for school and you made a mistake by reading the question incorrectly with your online teacher, then you have realised your mistake and can correct that error - and your homework before handing it in. So there is no need to make an excuse! If you are working with your online teacher and made a mistake, then that is always OK and it can be corrected. Why would you ask your online teacher if it is OK to make an excuse or lie - to your online teacher? He or she would know it is an excuse because you have just asked permission 'to make up' an excuse. So it is pointless to make an excuse in that case! 1 and 2 are ways of explaining why you made a mistake. 3 is answering this query - but as mentioned, the logic of saying this is not clear.

In the first sentence, you have started with 'it appears' which can also be said as 'it seems'. You then proceeded to say, I misread the question, using the verb to 'misread' in its past tense form., The verb to 'misread' means to read wrongly, misunderstand or misinterpret. The verb to 'redo means 'to do something again'. So, you may say: It appears I misread the question. My I re-do it? The second question is similar to the first one, except that you have started with an apology, which is very much recommended. Your request to redo it is extremely polite since you have added the adverb 'please'. So, you may say: My apologies, I misunderstood the question. May I please re-do it?

In such situation, try to be as polite as you can. Apologize first, saying that you are sorry, afterwards explain what happened and ask the question if you can read the sentence again.
