In traditional grammar, a contraction is the formation of a new word from one or more individual words. This often is a result of a common sequence of words, or, as in French, to maintain a flowing sound. However, contraction has gained a broader meaning both in linguistics and other areas of language research. Based on the latest definitions, contraction is shortening of a word, syllable, or word group by omission of internal letters. [ISO 4:1984]

  • 前置詞と冠詞の縮約（結合、融合、短縮; 英、仏contraction）とは、ヨーロッパ諸言語において、特定の前置詞と冠詞が連続するとき、それらが連結して一語となる現象のことである。縮約冠詞または冠詞前置詞ともいう。 ドイツ語、フランス語、スペイン語、イタリア語、ポルトガル語にみられるが、その多寡や任意性は言語によりさまざまである。 ポルトガル語では定冠詞・不定冠詞のどちらも縮約を起こすが、その他の言語では定冠詞のみが対象となる。 なお、以下の表では、縦軸に前置詞、横軸に冠詞を排列する。 (ja)
