What is amn't?
Amn't is a contraction of "am not," but it is not commonly used in standard English. Instead, "am not" is typically contracted to "aren't" in most English dialects.
Usage of amn't
Although "amn't" is not widely accepted, it is used in some dialects, particularly in Scottish English and Hiberno-English (Irish English). In these dialects, "amn't" is used as a contraction of "am not" in the first-person singular form of the verb "to be."
Alternative contractions
If you want to avoid using "amn't," you can use alternative contractions such as "ain't" or "aren't" in standard English. These contractions are more commonly accepted and used in everyday speech.
Amn't may be considered unconventional in most English-speaking contexts, so it is important to use it with caution. It is always a good idea to be aware of the dialect and audience you are speaking to when using non-standard contractions like "amn't."
