Abstract
Kenyang refusal's ambiguity causes psychological trauma. Natives aged 40 plus, and 10-25 years were investigated using 8 refusal scenarios, guided by the speech act theory and SPEAKING. Discourse Completion Task-Orality, role-plays and semi-interviews data were analysed integrating discourse and conversation analysis theories, thus found Kenyang blunt and direct.
