Imagine a classroom environment:
Now one says,
"Stephen is standing outside the class as he didnot bring the leave letter for his yesterday's absence"

The situation is that Stephen (for example only) was absent for the class yesterday & he is standing outside the classroom because he didnot bring the leave letter.

Now is that sentence right? is the usage of the word "absence" right?

Can u reframe the same sentence without changing the meaning.

This sentence would be more clear, and it does not change the intended meaning: Stephen is standing outside the class because he did not bring a letter for his absence yesterday.

Is didnot even a word?

Get rid of the "his" in the first example and it will be correct, or change it to "his absence yesterday".

leave-letter would be better, as most of us are not familiar with this term and it is confusing.
