REFUSING IN ENGLISH



One of the challenges of learning a foreign language is to be able to sound appropriately. It is true that being able to say something in basic English is the first step, but if you want to be fully understood, you should also behave adequately. Do you agree with me? 

Today, I’ll show you a few ways to refuse an invitation. When you refuse something, you say firmly that you will not do it. However, there are different ways of declining an invitation depending on the circumstance.

The diagram above shows how to say "no" in English, ranging from informal and strong refusals, to polite responses. So, let’s have a look at some ways of turning down something that is not desirable. 

Cheers!
