Answer 1

D) They always shorten two or more words into one word.

Contractions typically involve combining two words into one by omitting certain letters and replacing them with an apostrophe, such as "can't" (cannot), "won't" (will not), or "I'm" (I am). This process results in the shortening of the original words into a single word.
