英文簡寫略縮詞（contractions）教學來囉！在英文裡面就連主詞跟動詞，都可以有簡寫，例如：i’m、We’re、He’s、She’s…等等，這些英文簡寫詞，在英文裡面叫做contractions。因為語言本身有著朝向越來越簡化的趨勢，所以當你聽到有人用英文唸出這些英文縮寫詞，可不要聽不出來唷，這些英文簡寫詞在口說裡面超級常見。
下面教學英文略縮詞一共有哪些。
1.英文簡略縮詞：I, you, he, she, it, we, and they
下面列出跟英文裡面的你、我、他、他們、她…等有關的英文略縮詞。
例：
’m = am (I’m)
’re = are (you’re, we’re, they’re)
’s = is and has (he’s, she’s, it’s)
’ve = have (’ve, you’ve, we’ve, they’ve)
’ll = will (I’ll, you’ll, he’ll, she’ll, it’ll, we’ll, they’ll)
’d = had and would (I’d, you’d, he’d, she’d, it’d, we’d, they’d)
上面要注意的是，’s 有兩種可能意思唷，例如 he’s 表達「he has 或是 he is」，所以要根據情境來判斷對方到底說的是哪一個。 另外，he’s 不等同於he was 唷，千萬別誤用啦！
另外he’d 同樣有兩種情況，分別是he had 跟 he would ，一樣要跟情境去判斷對方說的是哪個。
2.跟助動詞有關的英文簡寫略縮詞
下面列出各種助動詞在包含了 not 之後的簡寫。
aren’t = are not (we aren’t, you aren’t)
can’t = cannot
couldn’t = could not
didn’t = did not (I didn’t, they didn’t)
hasn’t = has not
haven’t = have not
isn’t = is not (she isn’t, it isn’t)
mustn’t = must not
shan’t = shall not
shouldn’t = should not
wasn’t = was not
weren’t = were not
won’t = will not
wouldn’t = would not
這裡唯一要注意的是，can’t 是 cannot 的英文簡寫唷，而不是can not，這是比較特例的地方。
