Alternative Version ----- - - Thank you so much for your kind offer, but it’s too expensive for me, so I’m afraid I can’t accept it. I really appreciate your thoughtful gesture, but I don’t have anywhere I could use it. Over the past six years, I’ve learned so much from you — and that’s something I truly value. Perhaps you’d prefer to give it to someone else, or keep it for your daughters? I’m sorry about this, and I hope you won’t feel disappointed. Your intention means a great deal to me. ----- - - Tip and Explanation -- • “I can’t accept it” is better than “couldn’t” here because you are talking about a present decision. -- • “I appreciate your good intention” is understandable, but “I appreciate your thoughtful gesture” sounds more natural and polite. -- • “I don’t have any place to use it” becomes “I don’t have anywhere I could use it” — this is smoother and more idiomatic in English. -- • Using contractions like “I’ve learned” and “that’s something I truly value” makes the tone more fluent and friendly. -- • “Means a great deal to me” is a common and heartfelt way to express gratitude without exaggeration. --
