TRANSCRIPTION (explanation included)
These various expressions for negation span a spectrum of formality and tone. In the lexicon of everyday conversation, one might simply assert "no," "nope," or "nah," and even employ a touch of informality with "not gonna happen." When a matter is more absolute, phrases like "without a doubt, no" and "under no circumstances" make the position clear. In informal settings, a definitive refusal might take the form of "not a chance" or "ain't gonna happen," perhaps even with a touch of camaraderie, as in "nah, mate." For matters requiring decorum, a formal approach may involve phrases like "I'm afraid the answer is no" or "I must decline," while adding regret, as in "regrettably, no," imparts a sense of genuine consideration. Politeness tempers the refusal in phrases such as "I'm sorry, but no" and "thank you for considering me, but I'll have to say no," expressing gratitude for the offer. The witty turn of phrase adds a touch of humor to the refusal, suggesting impossibility with expressions like "I'd sooner sprout wings and fly" or "when pigs fly." In more elevated circles, the upper class might communicate their refusal with statements like "I regret to inform you that the answer is in the negative" or "it would not be fitting, I'm afraid," while maintaining an air of politeness. For royalty, a refusal is conveyed with grace and tact, as in "one must respectfully decline" or "I cannot acquiesce to that request," underscoring the formal nature of the response. Ultimately, the choice of expression hinges on the context and the level of decorum required for the situation at hand.

Authentic connection in the classroom is the cornerstone of compassionate teaching. If we want to develop lasting relationships with students and relate to them in meaningful ways, we must get to know them as unique individuals. In this episode, you will learn three changes to implement in your classroom, no matter how far into your teaching practice you are.

Teaching Compassion

Authentic Connection in the Classroom

In this episode, I reflect on Episode 1 of Season 1 of the anime *Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba*, titled **"Cruelty."**

The tragedy that struck Tanjiro, the bond with his sister Nezuko, and the sudden appearance of Giyu — it was filled with powerful, emotional moments where feelings clashed.

How did you feel in that moment when your heart wavered?

Let’s take a moment to savor the lingering echoes of this powerful story together.

Original story by Koyoharu Gotouge, directed by Haruo Sotozaki, animation by ufotable.

The first season of the TV anime aired in 2019, with a total of 26 episodes.
