"Don't" is a contraction of:
Adid not
Bdoes not
Cdo not
Dwould not
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. do not
1. A contraction shortens a word group by omitting internal letters.
2. "Don't" omits the "o" in "not" and joins it to "do".
3. Did not, does not and would not become didn't, doesn't and wouldn't.
**Why not the others:** Didn't, doesn't and wouldn't come from the other three forms.
