In Turkish, the word "hayir" (said like "high-er") means "no," but you won't hear it used all that often. To say "no" in Turkish, you can normally use the word "yok" (generally meaning "don't have") if the pronunciation of "hayir" is proving to be difficult. Most of the time, you don't even have to say anything. You can raise your eyebrows, make a kind of clicking sound with your tongue (your lips are normally pursed slightly while doing it) while raising your chin slightly, or do all of the above at the same time for a strong, stern answer. Also, slightly nodding your head down and blinking your eyes simultaneously is a way of saying "yes," but it's not as commonly used as the tongue clicking sound.
