Great job! You correctly identified the contractions in each sentence. Contractions are shortened forms of two words combined with an apostrophe. To form a contraction, you usually take out one or more letters from a word and replace it with an apostrophe. For example, "we are" becomes "we're" and "who is" becomes "who's." Contractions are commonly used in casual speech and writing to make the language more concise and natural. Keep up the good work!
