It’s good to learn how to say “Yes." in local language when you travel abroad.
It helps to communicate with people there.
At the same time, it’s better to learn how to say “No." as your answer is not always “Yes."
Sometimes you may need to refuse, disagree or deny strongly to avoid any troubles.
Even you try hard to fight, it can be waste of your effort if they don’t understand your words.
So it’s important to tell “Yes." or “No." clearly at least. Telling it by their language will help to understand each other.
Let’s see how to say “No.” in 50 different languages.
