The phrase "refuse with" is not a complete sentence.
It could be part of a sentence, but it would need to be followed by an object or a verb to make sense. Here are a few examples of how "refuse with" could be used correctly in a sentence: 1. "I will refuse with my whole heart to participate in such unethical practices." 2. "The waiter politely refused with a smile to bring us another round of drinks." 3. "She refused with a firm tone to lend money to her unreliable friend." 4. "He refused with a sigh to attend the boring meeting." In all of these examples, "refuse with" is followed by an object (my whole heart, a smile, a firm tone, a sigh) or a verb (to bring, to lend, to attend). This is necessary for the phrase to make sense in a sentence.
