Form pronoun-verb contractions

Key Notes:-

Introduction:
Pronoun-verb contractions are short forms of a pronoun and a verb combined together. They make speaking and writing easier and faster.

  • What are Pronoun-Verb Contractions?
  1. A pronoun-verb contraction combines a pronoun (like I, he, she, we) with a verb (like am, is, are) using an apostrophe (’).
  2. Example: “I am” becomes “I’m.”
  • Common Pronoun-Verb Contractions:
  1. I’m = I am
    • Example: “I’m happy.”
  2. You’re = You are
    • Example: “You’re my friend.”
  3. He’s = He is
    • Example: “He’s playing.”
  4. She’s = She is
    • Example: “She’s reading a book.”
  5. It’s = It is
    • Example: “It’s raining.”
  6. We’re = We are
    • Example: “We’re going home.”
  7. They’re = They are
    • Example: “They’re having fun.”
  • How to Form Pronoun-Verb Contractions:
  1. Take the pronoun (I, you, he, she, it, we, they) and the verb (am, is, are).
  2. Remove some letters from the verb and add an apostrophe where the missing letters were.
  3. Example:
    • “She is” → Remove “i” → “She’s”
    • “We are” → Remove “a” → “We’re”
  • Using Pronoun-Verb Contractions in Sentences:
  1. Pronoun-verb contractions make sentences shorter and easier to say.
  2. Examples:
    • “I am a student.” → “I’m a student.”
    • “They are excited.” → “They’re excited.”

Forming pronoun-verb contractions is simple and helps make communication smoother.
