How many ways to say no!

Post by corkbarry »

Different countries and indeed different regions have their own language when it comes to say no. I don't know if the following are unique to Cork, Ireland or if they are common in England.

NO= I will in my eye, or I will yea, no way boy. Also what matters is the way you would say it,it's hard to do an accent with writing

IE,when DB10 calls people names,you have to imagine the Dublin accent :lol:

Do you remember that film 'Wierd Science'?

Well, when I imagine DB10 I always think of that goblin type thing that Kelly LeBrock turned 'Chet' the older brother into. :lol: :lol:

"I am really sorry but..." is my usual way of saying no.

Speaking in Londonese, if you wish to say "no", you say "NO".

If you need to say "no" more forcefully, you say "FUCK OFF".

Simple, really. :D
