Notas de uso
- Use rifiutare for rejecting offers, requests, or proposals. For turning someone down romantically, rifiutare works, but respingere often sounds stronger.
- With infinitives, use di: rifiutare di fare qualcosa. English speakers often wrongly copy English patterns and omit di.
- For refusing a person entry or service, rifiutare can work, but negare or non accettare may sound more natural depending on context.
