What is the difference between Can not and Cannot ?Feel free to just provide example sentences.
I just heard that writing "can not" is a mistake unless it is written before the phrase "not only". Is that true? Help! 😬

The difference between "Can not" and "Cannot" is that "Can not" is wrong. Use "cannot" or "can't". Don't use "can not" :)
