In spoken English we usually pronounce ‘I am’ as one word. The short form (I’m) is a way of writing this.
When we write short forms, we use ‘(an apostrophe).
Don’t use contractions in formal documents.

NOTES
‘d = would or had:
• A: What would you like to eat?
B: I’d like a salad, please. (I’d like = I would like)
• I told the police that I’d lost my passport. (I’d lost = I had lost) ‘lost’ = past participle ‘d = had
‘s can mean different things: (1) ‘s = is or has
• She’s going out this evening. (she’s going = she is going) • She’s gone out. (she’s gone = she has gone) (2) let’s = let us
• The weather is nice. Let’s go out. (= Let us go out.)
(3) Ann’s camera (= her camera) / my brother’s car (= his car) / the manager’s office (=
his/her office) etc. Compare:
• Ann’s camera was very expensive. (Ann’s camera = her camera) • Ann’s a very good photographer. (Ann’s = Ann is) • Ann’s got a new camera. (Ann’s got = Ann has got) May not is not normally contracted: mayn’t is very rare.
We use short forms with I/you/he/she etc. but you can use short forms (especially ‘s) with other words too:
• Who’s your favourite singer? (= who is) • What’s the time? (= what is)
• There’s a big tree in the garden. (= there is)
• My sister’s working in London. (= my sister is working) • Paul’s gone out. (= Paul has gone out)
• What colour’s your car? (= What colour is your car?) Some negative expressions can have two possible contractions:
• she had not she’d not OR she hadn’t • he will not he’ll not OR he won’t • she is she’s not OR she isn’t (both common in Br. Eng.)
