USAGE OF SOME CERTAIN COLLOQUIALISMS:

Ain’t, Hain’t, and Gonna.

A: Hi dear. How are you?
B: Fine darling. Thank you.
A: Are you gonna somewhere?
B: Yeah, I am gonna visit my grandpa.
A: Oooh well good. ain't he living here?
B: Noo, he ain't.
A: Hmm. Then you gonna take a long travel:)
B: Yeah
A: See you then
B: See you.

Ain’t a is contraction for “am not”, “is not”, “are not”, “has not”, and “have not”. In some dialects ain't is also used as a contraction of "do not", "does not", and "did not". Widely used by many people, and found in most dictionaries, its use is often considered by prescriptionists to be informal, nonstandard, or improper. It is first found in the Book the Second of Little Dorrit (1857) written by Charles Dickens in the chapter 13: "I guessed it was you, Mr Pancks," said she, "for it's quite your regular night; ain't it? ... An't it gratifying, Mr Pancks, though; really?

Even though ain’t is used by working class people in the

United Kingdom, Then it gained popularity among all people. It is used in both speech and writing intentionally for the purpose of catching huge attention from readers and creating an emphasize on people. It is widely used in song lyrics, funny videos and some regional films.

Han't or ha'n't, an early contraction for has not and have not, developed from the elision of the "s" of has not and the "v" of have not.

Much like an't, han't was sometimes pronounced with a long "a", yielding hain't. With H-dropping, the "h" of han't or hain't gradually disappeared in most dialects, and became ain't.

Also, there is a gonna known “gunna” as well.

Written form of a reduction of "going to"

Eye dialect spelling of going to: used to express a future action.

This spelling, like any eye dialect spelling, risks appearing condescending. Even when going to has the pronunciation that gonna denotes, it is usually spelled <going to>.

Gonna, like the pronunciation it denotes, only occurs when the sense is roughly “will” or “shall”; hence “I’m gonna go now”, but not *“I’m gonna the mall.”

To illustrate the topic here below I found something funny talk:

Don't say ain't
Your mother will faint
Your father will fall in a bucket of paint
Your sister will cry
Your brother will die
And your dog will call the FBI

Here is the dialogue which shows some problematic use of

grammatical points especially it has an emphasize on ain’t.

Lawrence: Three double cheeseburgers, three large fries, one special salad and three Diet Cokes. And would you like a dessert with that?

Customer: -Um

Lawrence: You get a free dessert ‘cause you spent over £10, is it?

Customer: Actually, I think that’s fine. Thank you.

Lawrence: Have you got everything from your server that you asked for?

Customer: Sorry, everything that I…

Lawrence: Asked for. Is it that you got everything from your server that you asked for?

Customer: Um, yeah, thank you.

Lawrence: But is this the best that you ever been served in a burger bar?

Customer: Sorry…

Lawrence: Is it that I am the best server you have ever seen in a burger bar?

Customer: Well, you’re certainly very efficient.

Lawrence: Employee of the month, though.

Customer: Well, that’s a great achievement. I am gonna go now.

Lawrence: Are you employee of the month, though.

Customer: Uh, no, I am not.

Lawrence: So, you’ve never been employee of the month, then?

Customer: I am afraid my firm of lawyers don’t have the employee of the month.

Lawrence: Well, shut up, then.

(SMAKING LIPS)

Lawrence: Can I…

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Girl: What are you doing?

Lawrence: What?

Girl: You work in a burger bar.

Lawrence: No, I don’t.

Boy: That is well bad.

Lawrence: I don’t work here, though.

Girl: But you’re standing behind the counter.

Lawrence: Yeah, well, I got bored waiting for my order.

Boy: So, why are you in that uniform?

Lawrence: Right, this ain’t a uniform.

Boy: Why are you wearing it, then?

Lawrence: I ain’t wearing it.

Boy: But it says your name on it.

Lawrence: That ain’t my name.

Girl: It says “Lauren”

Lawrence: No it don’t.

Boy: “Welcome to Billy’s Burger Bar. My name is Lauren.”

Lawrence: Are you laughing at me?

Boy: Yeah, man.

Lawrence: Right. Do you think it’s funny?

Boy: Yeah, it’s well funny.
