«you are not able to» means «you do not have the ability to do this». In spanish, the vers «poder» means «you can» as it is possible for you (conditions are right, you may or you're able to). The sense of «poder» is larger than what «being able to» is. I hope it helps...

It seems to me as if this sentence repeats itself. Tu=you, no=not, puedes=you cannot. What am I missing?
