在台灣,許多人一再重覆使用相同的英文單字表達,聽在耳裡,
總叫老外覺得缺乏英文知識,在此教你如何因不同的感覺與
心情來表達"Yes" & " No"

Ways of saying “Yes” and “No”
:

 
-) For “yes”– yep /yeah /yup /sure thing/
uh-huh

 
 I wouldn't / won't say no


   give / get the nod

   I
got the nod from my boss.



  My boss gave me the nod.



  The board just gave me the green light to start the project.



(=allow a project, plan... to begin )

=) For “no” – uh uh /not likely/nope/nah

  not on your life



 no way



 fat chance



 When hell freezes over



  not a chance/no chance



  no dice



 ********



 When it means “no”



1) I'll sit this dance out.



2) I'll sleep on it.



3) I'll skip / pass



 4) She turned me down flat.
