In English, it is common to contract the words in a sentence. A contraction consists on two words made shorter by placing an apostrophe where letters have been omitted.

Contractions aren't necessary in written English since sing the full version of a word is always grammatically correct.

However, contractions make a piece of writing seem friendly and accessible.
