Please ponder this question: What part of speech is "cannot" ? You can't make it past tense. I have always written cannot as 2 words not one because I think it's a helping verb + "not" as an adverb written before an action verb.

Cannot is a contraction i thought.

Example:

Cannot - - > Can't
Do not - - > Don't
