Yes, there are several other words in Chinese that convey a similar meaning to 失业 (shīyè), which means "to lose one's job" or "to be unemployed." Here are a few alternatives:
1. 失去工作 (shīqù gōngzuò) - This phrase directly translates to "lose job." It emphasizes the act of losing employment rather than the state of being unemployed.
2. 待业 (dàiyè) - This term means "to be unemployed" and carries the connotation of being in a state of waiting for a job opportunity. It is often used in contexts where someone is looking for a new job after leaving a previous one.
3. 下岗 (xiàgǎng) - This term specifically refers to being laid off or dismissed from a job, often used in the context of state-owned enterprises in China. It indicates that the person was employed but is no longer working due to company restructuring or economic factors.

Yes, 失业 (shīyè) is used in formal contexts. It is a noun that means "unemployment" or "being out of work". It is often used in official documents, such as government reports, to refer to the number of people who are unemployed. It is also used in news reports and other media to discuss the current state of the job market.

待业 is "be unemployed" as in being the state of waiting for a job. For instance, a graduate from university can be unemployed directly after graduation.
失业 is to lose one's job. To lose one's job, you first have to have a job to begin with. So in the example of that university graduate, we cannot use 失业, since the graduate has never had a job before.
Hope this explanation helps!
