We've all suffered just the same when it comes to getting a rejection from our parents. They twist their words in so many ways to try and spare you the heartache of a straight up NO. But in the end, it all hurts just the same because you won't end up having it your way.

Here are 7 Arabic words parents use when they subtly want to reject you:

1. Inshallah

This is usually a maybe or a no wrapped inside a hopeful yes, making it the ultimate sugar-coated NO you've ever been handed.

2. Mnehke

You know when they come at you with this, it just means "We really don't want to discuss this, don't ever bring it up again."

3. Minshuf

We'll see a rejection, that's what we'll be seeing.

4. La wa'ta

But, the time is now so please just give me a straight up answer. Please. I beg you.

5. Momken

Well, maybe doesn't ever cut it. It surely cuts your thread of hope for a YES, that's for sure.

6. Mish wa'tek

taylor-swift-drop-everything-now

But, it's never my time anyways. Knowing parents, it never will be. Or it may be like 10 years from now.

7. Minfakir

You know when they say this, what they really mean is they need time to think about a way to tell you NO. That's it. Nothing more.
