    Are "oughtta" and "outta" pronounced the same?

      Hi, no they are not the same, the vowel sound is different. Here's help for "outta" ruclips.net/video/i1Igo3DC8ko/видео.html

    Ought to isn't a slang word so I may write this in exams or tests. But oughta is a slang version of ought to and ought to have. I always say oughta and oughta have when I'm speakin' with a lots of people 'cause it sounds cool and faster for me. Is this correct? What's with oughtn't to in slang version?

      Hi, yes, you are correct. We don't really use "oughtn't to" in American English, so there's no slang version. We're more likely to say "shouldn't have" or "shouldna." I talk about "couldn't have" in this video, it has the same pronunciation pattern: ruclips.net/user/liveYHt7GQwYK70

      Okay but you gotta say "oughtn't to" if it's an obligation or something esle. For example: You oughtn't to have committed a crime! It's for me an obligation and the people hafta obey this rules. This is an example sentences

      Yes, that is correct grammar, but in the US it's not really used. Language and grammar change over time, and this usage is becoming obsolete.

      I've got a question namely does that word oughtna exist? I heard, that is also a slang version

      Not as far as I know in modern US English, no.
