"不可能" meaning in Japanese

See 不可能 in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Adjective

IPA: [ɸɯ̟̊ᵝka̠no̞ː]
Etymology: Ultimately from Middle Chinese compound 不可能 (pjuw kha^Xnong, literally “not possible”). First cited in Natsume Soseki's works in 1905. The positive term 可能 (kanō, “possible”) isn't cited until a few years later in 1909. However, the related term 可能性 (kanōsei, “possibility”) is cited earlier in 1881, in the 哲学字彙 (Tetsugaku Jii, “Philosophy Dictionary”) compiled by Inoue Tetsujirō, suggesting that the terms 不可能 (fukanō) and 可能 (kanō) may have been in use earlier than first cited.

The positive term 可能 (kanō, “possible”) isn't cited until a few years later in 1909. However, the related term 可能性 (kanōsei, “possibility”) is cited earlier in 1881, in the 哲学字彙 (Tetsugaku Jii, “Philosophy Dictionary”) compiled by Inoue Tetsujirō, suggesting that the terms 不可能 (fukanō) and 可能 (kanō) may have been in use earlier than first cited.",

  "etymology_text": "Ultimately from Middle Chinese compound 不可能 (pjuw kha^Xnong, literally “not possible”).\nFirst cited in Natsume Soseki's works in 1905. The positive term 可能 (kanō, “possible”) isn't cited until a few years later in 1909. However, the related term 可能性 (kanōsei, “possibility”) is cited earlier in 1881, in the 哲学字彙 (Tetsugaku Jii, “Philosophy Dictionary”) compiled by Inoue Tetsujirō, suggesting that the terms 不可能 (fukanō) and 可能 (kanō) may have been in use earlier than first cited.",

However, the related term 可能性 (kanōsei, “possibility”) is cited earlier in 1881, in the 哲学字彙 (Tetsugaku Jii, “Philosophy Dictionary”) compiled by Inoue Tetsujirō, suggesting that the terms 不可能 (fukanō) and 可能 (kanō) may have been in use earlier than first cited.",
