# No - `v::no()` - `v::no(boolean $locale)` Validates if value is considered as "No". ```php v::no()->validate('N'); // true v::no()->validate('Nay'); // true v::no()->validate('Nix'); // true v::no()->validate('No'); // true v::no()->validate('Nope'); // true v::no()->validate('Not'); // true ``` This rule is case insensitive. If `$locale` is TRUE, uses the value of [nl_langinfo()](http://php.net/nl_langinfo) with `NOEXPR` constant. *** See also: * [BoolType](BoolType.md) * [BoolVal](BoolVal.md) * [Yes](Yes.md)
