NO!
is a very simple way to refuse. However, native speakers of English say “no” in many different ways which you might not know yet. It’s important for you to learn all the ways in which we can say “no” in order to prevent misunderstandings. You should also learn to use these because in some situations, you need to use stronger language. I will teach you 25 ways to refuse in a strong and direct way. Depending on where you come from, this may not be usual in your home country or culture. But in English-speaking countries, being direct is very often the most appropriate behavior. You will learn expressions such as No way, Jose
, under no circumstance
, out of the question
, no chance
, fat chance
, not gonna happen
, and many more. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to say the simple and common word “no” with more variety than ever before.

I got 8/10, some sentences I don’t really understand, but anyway thank Jade
Sometimes it’s hard to say no but it’s necessary to learn how to be defensive and not to agree all time, specially when we don’t want to.
so true
I got 10/10, thank you so so much :) U the best!
very nice..
Oh my god I had my worse result 5/10))) Thank Jade for lesson
Well,that isn’t too bad. I got 4/10 because I din’t watch the lesson. I think it’s quite good because I didn’t watch the lesson.
Why is “go away” incorrect for no. 1? I thought it’s said when someone has asked for more than once and it makes me sick.
Hi Astri,
your answer isn´t incorrent.
Jade has given this explanation :
All these answers are potentially correct. However, “How many times do I have to say ‘no'” is the most fitting because the drunk woman has asked more than once to get the telephone number.
Nice day,
Adriana
