Can you use yapmak for a general verb.
For example I can't=yapamam
So could why can't you be neden yapamazsin?
why don't you-neden yapmazsin.

Anyone?

İ have a question here,

Why did you use ''musun'' and Niçin in same question ?
Shouldnt it be,
Niçin bana anlatmıyorSUN ?

İ mean that's gives us a question with 2 question tools

Niçin and Mu ..

I have the same doubt since I was told in questions like "Niye / Niçin / " etc you should not use the mi/mu/ particle ....?

Bana niçin söyleyemezsin?
Bana niçin söylemiyorsun?

Niçin yapamıyorsun?
Niçin yapmıyorsun?

You don't use the question suffix when the question is constructed with a question word like niçin, neden, ne zaman, kim, nasıl etc.
