How to say "no way!"

Question

I've been using "Qué nooo!" But I don't think it's widely recognised in mainland Spain (I picked it up somewhere but can't remember) and may not even make sense :D

So how would you exclaim "no way!" ?

Answer 1

¡De ninguna manera! (No way I'm going to do that, etc.)

¡De veras! (No way...that's true?)

¿En serio? (No way....really?)

¿Cómo no? (of course)

¿Cómo no? means 'of course' or 'of course not'? - katydew, Sep 19, 2011

You can kind of compare it to "Why not?" or "sure"... - Goldie_Miel, Sep 19, 2011

Answer 2

Depending on context.

por supuesto no (of course not)

claro que no (of course not / obviously not).

Answer 3

Also: "¡No puede ser!" = "It can't be!"

Answer 4

I've heard (among other things) "ni modo" . However, this might have been on Spanish TV aimed at Spanish speakers living in the U.S.A.

Well, I've heard it in Mexio, too. - bomberapolaca, Sep 19, 2011

You could say "¡No me digas!"

Answer 6

I've heard of Qué va! and as Mariana said, De ninguna manera! ... Hope this helps!

Answer 7

Hello Loupou and any other readers,

Welcome to our Spanishdict community Forum

Well, depending on context, of course, there are a number of options that you can use:

¡Ni hablar! = No way!

¡Ni de coña! = No way/You must be joking!

¡De ninguna manera! = By no means! / No way!

Indirectly (ie: implied!)

¡Me estás tomando el pelo!= You must be joking! (There's no way I'm going to do that!

I hope this helps
