Can you help me revive the most graceful contraction, shan't?!
Question:
Can you help me revive the most graceful contraction, shan't?
Don't you think shan't deserves a use in this loquacious millennium?
If so, please use it in a few of your posts today. ;-) :-) :-)
examples:
I shan't be able to ride with the posse whilst I am guarding Buk's door.
or
I shan't eat another Gerkin before dinner.
19 hours ago
or
I shan't spell Gherkin correctly.

LOL, love your irony, Kitkat... and it's shall not ;-) :-)
Answers:
oddly enough i find 'shall not' much more graceful than the contraction 'shan't'. i use them both pretty regularly...but then i'm old and i shall not get any younger, then again i shan't take it to heart that you kids keep reminding me!...lol
