wakarimasen: I don't know honto: exactly the ga and da are particles which are not easy to explainm but in this case not essential for understanding. Within my limited knowledge of Japanese, "wakarimasen ga" means something like "I do not understand the subject of this" "honto da" here also the da escapes me.
