No is an English/Old English word indicating rejection, disagreement, refusal or making a negative response or exclamation. It is the opposite of yes.

Several programs aimed at children advocate the refusal skill of "saying no" in regard to high-risk behaviors, violence, drug, or sexual matters. For example the American television advertising campaign Just Say No in the 1980s aimed at spreading awareness about saying "no" to recreational drug use, violence, premarital sex, and other vices.
