Reduction in English

[mirock]

So, when you got some fluency in chat talking perhaps you need write more fast. Foreigners use reduction words for this, especially for long words. Such a "understand", "approximately".

But I read that americans are using just not reduced word but just another, simple word. Eg got - means very much other meaning. And this words used with other short words which means anywhere by more simple method.

And how you make this?

You mean phrasal verbs?
They are really multiple-meaning. I don't know all of them, just few. They require separate time to learn. I know separate words but when are got together it is sometimes difficult to figure out the meaning unless there is a proper context and you can understand without words what they mean.

I just learn those phrasal verbs by heart and don't know any other way how to manage them.

[mirock]

No. I mean reduction phrases like "btw", "eg" and other.

I'm afraid you misunderstand what reductions mean.

got - means very much other meaning

Got is just a simple word which doesn not mean anything if not followed by some other words.
btw, eg - abbreviations but not reductions

What they do call reductions are dunno, wanna, gonna, gotta, gotcha, gimme, lemme, kinda, kindsa, waddya, hafta, letsa etc

I interested as first of your example and second one.

I find a right word. It is CONTRACTION.

[Gibsonmpgu]

There are no contractions among your examples. Here are a couple of contractions, isn't, doesn't, must've, I'd, he's, they've etc.

btw, eg - abbreviations
