Qual è la differenza tra I am, You are, I will, It is, It is not...etc. e I'm, You're, I'll, It's, It isn't...etc. ?Sentiti libero di rispondere con un esempio.

Does nuance change by abbreviation? I'm glad that you can tell me the difference in fine nuances.

There isn’t any difference in meaning, just pronunciation.

I'm, You're etc. is just the abbreviation/shorter version of I am, You are etc.
"I am" should be used when addressing someone/writing a letter more formally

@royaltxger @greygriffin248 Thank you for your quick answer!!
I've thought there was nuance of emphasis. I found out wrong. Thank you!

If you do not mind, please answer this additional question.
Which should I use when commenting on this SNS? If I don't omit it, is I too polite?

Almost the only time you will need to use "I am" would be in a formal business letter or in an essay

@ha_lu You can really use the abbreviated ones or not. It really depends, but it won’t sound too polite. I kind of mix both ways when I’m speaking so don’t get too stressed about it.

@ha_lu this may be confusing, I'm means I am, you're means you are, I'll means I will, it's means it is, it isn't means it is not. now the way this makes sense is you are taking I am and making it shorter by dropping the a and adding a hyphen and putting the m there.... I hope that wasn't too confusing. there's really no difference to answer the main question.

@royaltxger Thank you for telling me also about when speaking. I did not know that they could be mixed. I'll be careful not to emphasize when speaking:D

@hannah098 Thank you for commenting!
But I'm sorry. It's difficult for me. There is a law to omit the notation. There is no difference in meaning. I understand so, but is it okay?

@ha_lu yeah, it's not informal or anything like that. It's just a shorter way to say something, and they are commonly used among the native U.S. English language

@hannah098 I understand. English has informal expression, but these are different. That means there are used more widely.
Thanks for the additional explanation!!
