In English most people use contractions whenever possible: (Except for when you are trying to be very firm/clear)
I can not wait! I can't wait!
I do not have it. I don't have it
Here is a website with all the commonly used contractions in English:
You can use contractions in any informal speech or writing. Here's a link to a list of contractions that are commonly used in English.
In fact, Ben Yoda said in The Sound on the Page, "In speech, there is an expectation that anyone who's not prissy or pretentious or emphasizing a point will use [contractions] whenever possible."

La manera correcta de escribir su pregunta es así:
When can I use contractions?
En inglés hay varias contracciones que se usan. ¿A qué se refiere?
During labour. ( assuming you're female)
Las contracciones de parto indican el comienzo del parto y que el bebé está por nacer.
After reading other responses I guess you mean contractions in English...,I'm sorry!
Here are some contractions of words we use in English:
can not -------> (becomes) can't
do not -----------> (becomes) don't
does not -----------> (becomes) doesn't
is not -----------> (becomes) isn't
will not -----------> (becomes) won't
When people speak colloquial English that you would hear on the streets of England they usually use these contracted forms .it just sounds more natural.
However when a teacher, parent, boss or adult wishes to emphasise some command they often use the full version
Parent: "I said, do not touch the biscuits!

Do you mean contraction of the article in Spanish? I hope so because your question is a not clear.
Please complete your profile and make your questions clear so we know whether the question is about Spanish or English. Thank you
Here are two examples when you would use contraction of the article:
1, When you want to say: to the in Spanish you would combine: a + el (= to make) al (to the ) For example: Voy a ir al banco = I am going to the bank. You would never say in Spanish: Voy a ir a el banco It sounds bad!
2 When you want to say: of the in Spanish you would combine: de + el (= to make) del For example:
El nombre del hijo = The son's name (lit: the name of the son) You would never say in Spanish: El nombre de el hijo it sounds terrible!
I hope ths helps
