I'M OKAY, THANK YOU - Politely Decline | English Phrases

Hello! This is Jack from tofluency.com - I'm still here at the Biltmore estate

and I just overheard something which I wanted to share with you.

It's a great phrase to know when you want to say no without being rude.

So, inside the Biltmore house they take your photo and you go through a line and

they have the camera set up - and it's very difficult to say no. But a great way that

you can say no is by saying "I'm okay, thank you."

or "We're okay, thank you." So, when someone offers you something that's what you can

say - and I heard a family say this

the father said, "No, we're okay, thank you."

It's a very polite way to say, "no, thank you."

As you probably already know, a lot of people when speaking English try to be

polite;

try to refuse things in a polite way, so it's a great phrase to know if you want

to say no when someone asks you something.
