Informal contractions in English

Contractions are words that are created by combining words in order to shorten them from their original form. They are used when speaking and when writing in casual situations. 
Common contractions are she's (she is), don't (do not), can't (cannot) and won't (will not), among others; and can be written or spoken (informal)
Informal contractions often combine with: you, to, of, would have, etc.
Informal contractions are contractions that break grammar rules and are only used in very casual speech.
