CONTRACTION
Read the following sentences.
I've the kite myself.
He isn't reading now.

From the above sentences,we can see short form A.V/ and not with A.V.
There are two kinds of contractions.
1.Contraction of A.V.(auxiliary verb)
2,Contraction of not with A.V.
Contraction of A.V.

If there is seen sub. +'s +obj/adj/noun/verb-ing,then 's means is/was.
But if there is sub. +'s+verb-p.p/noun,then 's means has.
sub.+'m=I am.
sub.+'ve=I have/you have/they have/we have/Rahim and Karim have.
