Unit 1167. 거절할 때

 

#. turn down + 제안 /  대상  cf. 볼륨을 낮추다

 

I politely turned down the offer of an interview.

It's too good to turn down.

Why did you turn down such a great opportunity?

I'm not good at turning people down flat. 

My request for a raise got turned down.

 

Hey, have you thought about my offer?

> I'm afraid I'll have to turn you down.

That's too bad. May I ask why?

> The job I have now is better for me.
