Gonna: going to. Recuerdas la canción «nothing is gonna stop us» (Starship, 70-80’s) es nothing is going to stop us
as wanna: want to, y recuerdas las Spice Girls, I wanna be your…. I wanna be, I wanna be… algo así… es I want to be your: yo quiero ser tu….

For me understand songs is to difficult, because the musicians mix this kind of slangs or contractions, so at the same time, try to understand the songs is useful to learn how to speak the «english street».

I hope, I would help you.

As many others said, please feel free to correct my rights, I’m learning.

You will not find gonna in the dictionary because it is not a real word. When English is spoken quickly, the words tend to run together, hence gonna, instead of going to, like a previous discussion of wanna. English has so many of these and yes, I would think it would be hard to understand, especially in songs. I speak English and I find songs hard to understand.

Hi evryone…

I’m afraid it happens the same in Spanish… (well , not exactly the same…)

En español hablado, decimos: «M’he comprao’n libro».
En español escrito, debemos decir: «Me he comprado un libro»…

Spoken language tends to shortness…, as evrybody knows…

Does anyone know the meaning of «dunno»?

By the context, I guess it means something like «don’t know» or «know», but I don’t catch the actual meaning…

Thanks

By the way, another expression that makes wonder its meaning is «gotta». I suppose it means «have to» in a very unformal way, but I’m not sure enough

Where I come from in England, the local accent, (now much more diluted due in many people moving in from other areas) we have many poorly pronounced words such as:

ent, kent, shent, and enagunna!

ent = am not
kent = can not
shent = shall not
enagunna = am not going to

Fritzybabe

Are they the phonetics of the expressions or the spelling? These are new to me :eek:

Another expression is AIN’T. What’s its meaning? I’ve seen this one in very different cases :confused:

Hi Padawan

These are very local ‘regional accent’ words.

For example ent means exactly the same as ain’t, but ain’t would sound like ain’t nearer London and more like ent near where I come from.

They are phonetic spellings and would only be written down if you were trying to recreate an exact copy of someones pronunciation. Similar to comics such as Viz etc.

Hope this is clearer.

Back on topic, I’d like to ask you the meaning of «dunno», because it’s really disconcerting to me

By the way, thanks for the explanation above

Dunno means do not know

Do not know is correct English when written.

Don’t know is spoken English when used in quotation marks: «I don’t know», he said. for example.

Dunno is how it actually sounds when said either very quickly or poorly.

Most phonetic words like this are usually due to a degree of laziness and not pronouncing certain letters such as the ‘t’: don’t know becoming dunno.

Does this help?

Fritybabe

Yes, it does, but I’m wondering how the U in DUNNO is pronounced, becuase I thought it was something like /iu/ … In fact, it sounded to me like /diuneu/ , what could be interpreted as «do you know…» (if you say it quickly ).

Thank you, greetings, Hanna :eek:

By the way, other contractionI have seen, are gotta, which I don’t know what it mean.

The «U» in Dunno is pronounced like the «U» in Dumb.

I would like to reiterate what Fritzybabe wrote about the phonetic spelling of these words: dunno, gonna, ain’t, wanna, gotta. These words would only be written in this form when creating a dialogue in books or comics, wherever a dialogue would be written. They would not be seen in the narrative or any other written form.

VenusEnvy said:

The ‘u’ in ‘dunno’ is pronounced as VenusEnvy says. I suspect what you heard was indeed a contraction of «do you know» (rather than «don’t know»). People often say stuff like «D’you know what I mean?»

VenusEnvy said:

Dunno = Don’t know
Gonna = Going to
Ain’t = Am not
Wanna = Want to
Gotta = Got to (Improper), Have to (Proper)

«Ain’t» can also mean «haven’t».
e.g. I ain’t done nothing wrong (I haven’t done anything wrong)
e.g.2 I ain’t got no shoes (I haven’t got any shoes)
(notice also the double negatives)

«Ain’t» is a slang word and is considered uneducated, though most people use it in an informal setting. It means «is not» or «are not».

You ain’t supposed to use it ’cause it ain’t proper.

One correction I’d like to make: Gotta is short for «I’ve got to» or «I have got to». In this text, it is correct. If you just use «I gotta», without the «have», instead of «I’ve gotta», it is improper grammar. When spoken, it always comes out «I gotta», which is oh so wrong but oh so used. Picky, picky, picky…
