<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">repudiation</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for denial that I've seen before include "Refusal, abnegation" , "Act of asserting that something alleged is not true" , "Refusal to admit painful truths" , "Negation" , "Refusal to acknowledge" .)
