A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Refusal means saying no to something that is offered or demanded. It can also mean having the right to say no before something is offered to others.

Example 1: The teacher asked the student if they wanted to participate in the school play, but the student's refusal was due to their stage fright.

Example 2: The company gave their loyal customers the first refusal to buy tickets for the concert before they were offered to the general public.

These examples illustrate how refusal can be used in different situations. In the first example, the student refused to participate in the school play because they were afraid of performing on stage. In the second example, the company gave their loyal customers the right to refuse the tickets before they were offered to others.
