In English grammar the modal verb “can” and its opposite “cannot or can’t” is explained as a verb that we use to describe ability or the lack of it. For example, I can play tennis or I cannot swim.
在英語語法中，情態動詞"can"和它的否定形式"can’t"分別用來描述擁有某種能力和缺乏某種能力，比如"I can play tennis."(我會打網球。)或者" I cannot swim."(我不會游泳。)
In question form it can be used to ask permission, for example, “Can I leave early today?” or as a challenge – “Why can’t I have another biscuit?”
在疑問句中，"can"和"can’t"用于征得同意，比如“Can I leave early today?”(“我今天可以提前走嗎?”)或者可用于表達挑釁意味，如“Why can’t I have another biscuit?”(“我為什么不能再吃一塊餅干?”)
Can’t (or cannot) is also used with some verbs to create idiomatic expressions and are widely used by native English speakers.
"can’t"(或"can not")也常常和一些動詞連用，在英語中是常用的習慣表達。
