shouldn't (should not)

Should not

might have  =  might've

must have  =  must've

Answer 5

didn't would be a contraction.

wouldn't would be a contraction.

Shouldn't couldn't, should've, could've.

Does that give you an idea?

Answer 6

can not - can't

do not - don't

I will - I'll

A contraction is a way of putting two words together to make one word, and the apostrophe takes the place of the missing letters.

Answer 7

I'm (I am), can't (cannot), how's (how is), and Ma'am (Madam),

For example, "don't" is a contraction that is short for "do not"; the apostrophe in "don't" takes the place of the missing "o". Another example is "o'clock," a contraction "of the clock." A less common example of a contraction is "jack-o'-lantern," short for "jack-of-lantern"; in it, the apostrophe takes the place of the missing "f" in "of."

doesn't

isn't
