In this session, we continue the study of whole-word contractions. As with the whole-word contractions presented in Session 5, many of the whole-word contractions presented here can also do "double-duty" as part-word contractions. In this session, however, only their use as whole-word contractions will be discussed. Their part-word nature will be considered in later sessions.
For purposes of this course, whole-word contractions have been divided into five categories. In the previous session, we looked at three different categories of whole-word contractions:
- Major whole-word contractions: and, the, of, with, for
- Single-letter contractions
- Whole-word one-cell contractions
In this session, we'll look at some of the more complex whole-word contractions:
- Whole-word lower sign contractions
- Initial letter (two-cell) contractions
