Contractions Know How There are about 70 contractions in the English language. Most contraction are made by leaving out two letters like the word she will (she’ll). Some contractions are missing only one letter. Words are squeezed together.

Contractions with I and am Whenever there is a contraction with I, I must be capitalized. You will only use am with I in a contraction. Replace the a with an apostrophe. Squeeze the words together. I + am = I’m

Contractions with is If is is part of the two words that make up the contraction, you will leave out the i and replace with an apostrophe & + s Squeeze the words together. she + is = she’s he + is = he’s it + is = it’s that + is = that’s

Contractions with are If are is part of the two words that make up the contraction, you will leave out the a and replace with an apostrophe and add re. Squeeze the words together. they + are = they’re we + are = we’re you + are = you’re

Contractions with will If will is part of the two words that make up the contraction, you will leave out the w and i and replace with an apostrophe and add ll. Squeeze the words together. she + will = she’ll I + will = I’ll they + will = they’ll we + will = we’ll he + will = he’ll you + will = you’ll it + will = it’ll

Contractions with not If not is part of the two words that make up the contraction, you will leave out the o and replace with an apostrophe. Squeeze the words together. have + not = haven’t does + not = doesn’t is + not = isn’t do + not = don’t had + not = hadn’t must + not = mustn’t could + not = couldn’t would + not = wouldn’t should + not = shouldn’t can + not = can’t (leave out one of the n’s) will+ not = won’t (not willn’t!!!!!!!!!!)

Contractions with have If have is part of the two words that make up the contraction, you will leave out the ha and replace with an apostrophe. Squeeze the words together. I + have = I’ve they + have = they’ve we + have = we’ve you + have = you’ve
