I have to go right now. (Lit: If I don't go out right now it won't do.)

souka..

ah sou sou ^^
denai = negative of deru to leave
ikemasen = negative of ikeru ..which means what? lol

I break down every piece of a sentence, i understand things better than way

Thanks for clearing that up

ikeru = potential of iku

ikemasen / ikenai either means "can't go" or ~"isn't done".

I suppose it could be either in this case.

I haven't learned the potential form of verbs yet

Thankies!!
