스페인어 축약형

Spanish contractions (contracciones) are combinations of two words that merge into a single form. Unlike English, which has many optional contractions (don't, won't, can't), Spanish has only two mandatory contractions: "al" (a + el) and "del" (de + el). These contractions must be used whenever the prepositions "a" or "de" precede the masculine singular definite article "el."

주요 특징

Only Two Contractions

Spanish only has two official contractions: al (a + el) and del (de + el). They are mandatory, not optional.

Always Required

Unlike English contractions, Spanish contractions are not casual or optional - you must use them.

Only with "el"

Contractions only occur with the masculine singular article "el," not with él (he), la, los, or las.

Proper Nouns Exception

Contractions are not used when "El" is part of a proper noun like "El Salvador."

Only "el" contracts. Don't contract with la, los, las, or él (he).

✗ Voy a la → al la (wrong!) | ✓ Voy a la escuela (correct - no contraction)

Contracting with proper nouns

Don't contract when El is part of a place name.

✓ Voy a El Salvador (not "al Salvador") | ✓ Soy de El Cairo (not "del Cairo")

축약형 사용을 위한 전문가 팁

💡 Think of "al" and "del" as single words

예시: Don't think of them as "a + el" - just memorize "al" means "to the" and "del" means "from/of the"

💡 Remember: él (with accent) = he, el (no accent) = the

예시: Only contract with el (the), never with él (he): "Hablo de él" not "del"
