  1. dekimasen comes from dekiru.

    Dekiru means, "to be able"

    So, dekimasen means, "cannot," or "unable." Also, it means be ready, so "not ready" can be understood from dekimasen.


  2. できる (dekiru) is the verb for "to be able to." If you wanted to say "can" or "able to," you would say できます(dekimasu). But, by changing it from ます (masu) to ません (masen) you make it negative. So できません (dekimasen) means "can't."

  3. like you cannot do it or it is not possible.
