JLPT N3 Grammar

わけがない

N3Negation

N3 · Negation · plain form + わけがない

there is no way; it is impossible that...

plain form + わけがない

わけがない means the speaker strongly judges that something is impossible based on common sense, facts, or the situation.

Use it to reject an idea or emphasize that something cannot be true. The polite form is わけがありません.

毎日練習している彼が、基本の形を忘れるわけがありません。

He practices every day, so there is no way he would forget the basic form.

Do not use it exactly like はずがない in every context; わけがない emphasizes that the reason or logic makes something impossible.

わけ means “reason”; if there is no reason for it to be true, it is impossible.
