I will not come to the market.

They are not related to each other.
They're not related to each other.
She will give the Welcome Address.
She'll give the Welcome Address.
Geetha was not absent yesterday.

Exercise 11 is about creating your own sentences using contractions.

Using contractions helps make language sound more relaxed and is often used in casual conversation. However, in formal writing, it's usually better to avoid contractions.
