what exactly does this mean?
맡에요 (might be spelled wrong)

meoteyo or beoteyo

I believe it just means "can't", but am not sure.Thank you Mojave, that clears it up. My confusion arose from the fact that the translation I was given was "I can't speak", but then I heard it being used in situations where "I can't" might make sense, but "I can't speak" didn't. I apologize if I caused confusion to some others.
미안합니다

Answer

It is 뭐에요 and it means "what is (it)?".

Example:

이름은 뭐에요? = What is your name?

Answer

못 하다 is really basic, meaning "I can't do". You can use it with all -하다 verbs. Just detach the noun from 하다 and put it in front of 못 하다. 말하다 = to speak (literally, to do words). 말하다 => 말 + 하다 => 말을 못 하다. = I can't speak.

Answer

못 해요 means "I can't"
