Marketing - Marketing / Market Research / Marketing survey BR PT | | Portuguese term or phrase: Eu não aceito | “Eu não aceito” (10% da amostra): insatisfeitas e sem esperança na vida. Por desilusão, desconfiam das instituições e da própria família. Na hora das compras, agem de forma inconsequente e por impulso

| | | English translation:I won't have it/I don't accept it/I don't take it | Explanation:
It's a little difficult to determine what is not accepted from the context/excerpt given, but either would fit, as most of the answers. I believe here it is more a case of matching the tone of the rest of the text. |
