ne mozhno

[Ashot Vardanyan]

It's as funny as the "l'zya" form used ironically or just as a joke for 
"mozhno". Of course, "ne mozhno" is not a standard, nor is "l'zya" at all. To 
me, sounds something like "mayn't" or even"mightn't" in English which sound 
terrible, don't they?

Subject: [SEELANGS] ne mozhno

Dear all,
one of my native speaker students used 'ne mozhno' as a response.  I don't think 
I've come across that before and was always under the impression that  it wasn't 
possible.  Just wondering what your thoughts are on it.
Thanks
AM
