The following structure is used to say: I can't -Verb-
Verb+ㄹ/을 수(가) 없다
지금 이얘기할 수(가) 없어요. I can't talk right now.
밥이 없어서 요릴 수(가) 없어요. There's no food so I can't cook.
1. First you have to drop 다 and add 을 (if the verb ends with a consonant) ㄹ(if the verb ends with a vowel)
To go 가다 //// 갈
To live 살다 //// 살 (If the vowel ends with ㄹ you only drop 다)
To eat 먹다 //// 먹을
2. 수 literally means "way, capability" and is the verb 없다 "not to be". So this would take the meaning as: No to have a way to - Verb (But nowadays translated as ---> Cannot - Verb). And 가 is a particle but it's not necessary to use it.
