הוא לא אמר "לא", כלומר עדיין יש סיכוי שהוא יסכים.

Because the two instances of לא are doing different jobs:

• The first לא is the regular negation word: הוא לא אמר = he did not say
• The second לא is the actual word he supposedly did or did not say: "no"

So:

• הוא לא אמר לא would literally mean he didn’t say “no”
• In writing, quotation marks make that especially clear: הוא לא אמר "לא"

Yes. Hebrew very often expresses this idea as said + the quoted word.

So:

• הוא אמר "כן" = he said “yes”
• הוא אמר "לא" = he said “no”

This is very natural Hebrew. In English we often turn this into the fixed phrase said no, but in Hebrew the quoted-word structure is very common.

כלומר means something like:

• that is
• that is to say
• meaning
• in other words

It introduces an explanation or clarification of what came before.

In this sentence:

• הוא לא אמר "לא", כלומר...
• He didn’t say “no”, in other words...

So the second part explains the implication of the first part.

עדיין usually means still.

Here it gives the sense of still / still yet / as of now:

• עדיין יש סיכוי = there is still a chance

The idea is: even now, after what happened, the possibility remains.

Depending on context, עדיין can sometimes feel close to English yet or still, but in this sentence still is the best match.

יש means there is / there are.

So:

• יש סיכוי = there is a chance

This is a very common Hebrew structure:

• יש זמן = there is time
• יש בעיה = there is a problem
• יש אפשרות = there is a possibility

So עדיין יש סיכוי is literally there is still a chance.

Because the sentence is talking about a possible future outcome, not a current fact.

• שהוא יסכים = that he will agree / that he may agree
• שהוא מסכים = that he agrees / is agreeing

After expressions like יש סיכוי ש... (there is a chance that...), Hebrew commonly uses the future tense to talk about something that may happen:

• יש סיכוי שהוא יבוא = there is a chance he’ll come
• יש סיכוי שהיא תסכים = there is a chance she’ll agree

So יסכים is natural because the agreement has not happened yet; it is only possible.

יסכים is the future tense, 3rd person masculine singular form of הסכים (agreed / to agree).

Breakdown:

• dictionary form / past base: הסכים = he agreed
• future 3rd person masculine singular: יסכים = he will agree

This verb belongs to the הפעיל pattern. In the future tense, the initial ה of that pattern usually disappears, so:

• הסכים → יסכים
• החליט → יחליט
• הרגיש → ירגיש

So even though יסכים may look quite different at first, it is the regular future form of הסכים.

Hebrew often includes the subject pronoun even when the verb already shows person/gender/number.

So:

• יש סיכוי שהוא יסכים = very natural
• יש סיכוי שיסכים = also possible in some contexts

Including הוא makes the sentence clearer and more explicit, especially when:

• you want to emphasize who is being talked about
• there could be ambiguity
• the sentence has more than one clause

Since יסכים already means he will agree, the pronoun is not always strictly necessary, but it is very common and natural to keep it.

The ש is the conjunction that.

So:

• יש סיכוי שהוא יסכים = there is a chance that he will agree

This ש is extremely common in Hebrew and introduces a subordinate clause.

Other examples:

• אני חושב שהוא צודק = I think that he is right
• אני יודע שהיא באה = I know that she is coming
• יש סיכוי שהם יגיעו = there is a chance that they will arrive

In everyday English, that is often omitted, but in Hebrew ש is usually present.

Yes, Hebrew word order is flexible, and יש עדיין סיכוי is also possible.

Compare:

• עדיין יש סיכוי = still, there is a chance
• יש עדיין סיכוי = there is still a chance

Both are natural. The difference is mostly about emphasis and flow, not basic meaning.

In your sentence, עדיין יש סיכוי sounds very smooth and emphasizes still right away.

Because כלומר introduces an explanatory comment.

The comma helps mark the pause:

• הוא לא אמר "לא", כלומר עדיין יש סיכוי שהוא יסכים.

It works much like English punctuation before expressions such as:

• that is
• in other words
• meaning

So the comma is natural and helps readability.

Yes. That is a very close, natural translation.

A few good English versions are:

• He didn’t say “no,” so there’s still a chance he’ll agree.
• He didn’t say “no” — meaning there’s still a chance he’ll agree.
• He didn’t say “no”; in other words, there’s still a chance he’ll agree.

The Hebrew כלומר most directly matches meaning / that is / in other words, though in smoother English people may sometimes use so if they want to express the implication more naturally.
