Etymology and usage notes: The verb a refuza comes from Latin refūsāre and has entered Romanian through the Romance language family, with French and other continental Romance languages contributing to its development. Refuzi is a transitive verb form, typically followed by a direct object (refuzi ceva) or used with clauses (refuzi să faci ceva). It is common in both spoken and written Romanian, including formal contexts where a denial or rejection is stated.

Examples:

- Tu refuzi oferta, nu? (You refuse the offer, right?)

- Dacă tu refuzi, vom căuta altă soluție. (If you refuse, we will seek another solution.)

- Ea te-a întrebat, iar tu ai refuzat. (She asked you, and you refused.)

Related forms include refuz, refuză, refuzăm, refuzați, and refuză, which cover other persons and tenses. Antonyms include accepta and a accepta. Refuzi is primarily a grammatical form rather than a standalone lexical item, serving as the explicit second-person singular present tense of the verb a refuza.
