事情太多忙不过来，拒绝别人也不好意思?编不出好的理由，你还不如礼貌地据实相告。那么你知道用英文怎么拒绝才不会得罪人吗?下面来学习一下吧。

拒绝的英语说法：

1. I have an emergency to attend to.

别人请你帮忙，可你却有急事要先办，那就用上这句话吧!I have an emergency to attend to.意思是“我还有急事儿要办”，例如：

-Can you help me fix my computer?

(能帮我修下电脑吗?)

- I am sorry. I have an emergency to attend to.

(不好意思，我现在有急事得处理。)

2. I am right in the middle of something.

自己忙得不可开交，哪儿有空管别人的闲事儿?想表达自己特别忙没时间，可以用短语in the middle of something,想象一下自己诸事缠身的感觉，这个短语是不是很形象呢?

例句：Is it okay if I call you back later? I am right in the middle of something.

(我一会儿给你回电话行吗?我现在正忙着呢。)

3. That is not my strong suit.

除了忙，还有没有新鲜一点的理由啦?别着急，这一句可以帮到你。That is not my strong suit.表示“那不是我的强项”。比如有小伙伴想找你帮忙补习地理，可你自己也不在行，可以说：I'm afraid geography is not my strong suit. (地理也不是我的强项啊。)

4. That’s not quite what I have in mind.

和朋友逛街，眼光不同，Ta的提议你会采纳吗?感觉不靠谱就试试这句吧。例句：

-What about this one?

(这件怎么样?)

That’s not what I have in mind...

(和我想要的不太一样。)

5. I am not ready to start a relationship right now.

有人向你表白，可你还没想好要不要恋爱，或许你压根就不喜欢TA，该怎样拒绝才不会伤到对方?看看这句!I am flattered that you feel that way about me, but I am not ready to start a relationship right now.(你这么说真是让我受宠若惊，但我还没准备好谈恋爱呢。)
