I see; ... huh A casual sentence-ending particle that often expresses realization or resignation; the drawn-out sound adds emphasis.

EN: Oh, it’s raining again today.
like hell; no way In a rhetorical negative expression, it emphatically rejects the idea.
JA: そんな簡単に諦めてなるかぁ！
EN: Like hell I’ll give up that easily!
