CANNOT
Etymology
Verb
cannot
Can not (be unable to).
Be forbidden or not permitted to
Usage notes
Both the one-word form cannot and the two-word form can not are acceptable, but cannot is more common (in the Oxford English Corpus, three times as common). The two-word form is better only in a construction in which not is part of a set phrase, such as 'not only... but (also)': Paul can not only sing well, but also paint brilliantly.
Synonyms
• can't
Noun
cannot (plural cannots)
Something that cannot be done.
Anagrams
• Canton, Conant, Nacton, canton, noncat
