Ain't

Ain't is a contraction for ''am not'', ''is not'', ''are not'', ''has not'', and ''have not'' in the common English language vernacular. In some dialects ''ain't'' is also used as a contraction of ''do not'', ''does not'', and ''did not''. The development of ''ain't'' for the various forms of ''to be not'', ''to have not'', and ''to do not'' occurred independently, at different times. The usage of ''ain't'' for the forms of ''to be not'' was established by the mid-18th century, and for the forms of ''to have not'' by the early 19th century.
The usage of ''ain't'' is a perennial subject of controversy in English. ''Ain't'' is commonly used by many speakers in oral or informal settings, especially in certain regions and dialects. Its usage is often highly stigmatized, and it may be used as a marker of socio-economic or regional status or education level. Its use is generally considered non-standard by dictionaries and style guides except when used for rhetorical effect, and it is rarely found in formal written works.
==Etymology==
''Ain't'' has several antecedents in English, corresponding to the various forms of ''to be not'' and ''to have not'' that ''ain't'' contracts. The development of ''ain't'' for ''to be not'' and ''to have not'' is a ''diachronic coincidence'';〔
〕 in other words, they were independent developments at different times.
