Shortening of words?

Question

I know that in English we have words such as I'd or I'll, but does the languauge spanish have terms like this? if so, Please Help!

Answer 1

Spanish has a mechanism to join 2 words into one, but it´s not like pronoun+auxiliary in English. It´s called contracción and you can find an article in Spanish in this link

Answer 2

All I can think of is 'del' for 'de' 'el' and 'al' for 'a' 'el'....but I am not the grammar person here.

Answer 3

Besides 'al' from "a el" and 'del' from "de el":

'paraguas' from "para aguas". (I think that there are more like this that I can't remember.)

21 - 29: 'veintiuno' from "veinte y uno", for example.

The pronoun-verb contractions of English remind me of the verb-pronoun contractions of Spanish like 'Vámonos' from 'Vayámosnos' ( or 'Vayámonos' or 'Vámosnos').
