can't

--feedback--

This contraction means cannot and expresses strong certainty that something is not possible.

--explanation--

It can't be is used when someone is certain that something is not true or not possible. For example:

  • It can't be true! - You are sure it is false.

  • That error can't be from my code. - You are confident your code is correct.

Jake is sure that the security breach was not random — he believes it must have been targeted for a reason.
