No one

/noʊ wʌn/pronoun
ELI5 mode

No one is a pronoun that refers to not a single person or absolutely nobody, emphasizing total absence or exclusion in a statement. In modern usage, it's treated as a singular entity in grammar, requiring singular verbs like 'is' rather than 'are', though this rule is often overlooked in casual conversation for a more natural flow.
