    Contractions are words and phrases that are shortened by dropping sounds (in writing and in speaking). Contractions are all the you'd, she'll, we’re, isn't etc.
    These contractions allow us to signal our listeners what is more important and what is less, and that makes our communication in English clearer.
    For non-native speakers, these contractions might be a bit confusing.
    Have you ever thought to yourself, "these short words are not clear enough when they come out of MY mouth"? Do you find yourself separating them because of that? Many learners of English as a second language feel like that but actually, the truth is you can use these contractions, and sound clearer! In this video, I’ll tell you how to use contractions in speaking and how to pronounce the most common contractions in English.

    Here're all the contractions I talked about in the video (in case you'd like to focus on some of them):
    7:30 I am
    8:41 is
    10:09 are
    12:38 will
    15:25 would
    17:17 have
    18:46 has
    19:11 was, were
    20:39 not
    23:30 will not
    24:33 did not
    25:05 must not
    25:11 can not

      @bilahn1198 3 года назад

      A distinction should be made between formal and informal contractions. For example. " Do you not" can be contracted formally to "Don't you". But in common speech you are most likely to hear "Doncha". This is what you want to say if you really want to sound native! But you would never write "Doncha" unless you were quoting speech. It's really not an actual word.
