A contraction is words like Can't or It's.
They mean something. Like It's means "It is."
Can you think what "Can't" means?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh ok
OpenStudy (natasha18):
A dead giveaway is that they always have an apostrophe
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so C
OpenStudy (natasha18):
But not every word that has an apostrophe is a contraction. But every contraction does have an apostrophe. Hope I helped ;)
