A contraction is a shortened version of the spoken and written forms of a word, syllable, or word group, created by omission of internal letters and sounds.
In linguistic analysis, contractions should not be confused with crasis, abbreviations and initialisms (including acronyms), with which they share some semantic and phonetic functions, though all three are connoted by the term "abbreviation" in loose parlance. Contraction is also distinguished from morphological clipping, where beginnings and endings are omitted.
The definition overlaps with the term portmanteau (a linguistic blend), but a distinction can be made between a portmanteau and a contraction by noting that contractions are formed from words that would otherwise appear together in sequence, such as do and not, whereas a portmanteau word is formed by combining two or more existing words that all relate to a singular concept that the portmanteau describes.
Firstly this is not in my home but rather the boiler room at a lodge I was staying at in a UK holiday camp. I naturally reported these to their guest services team but I was wondering if you've come across anything like this before? They weren't visibly leaking and I couldn't find a reason for...
I'm being lazy as I'm sure MIs tell me somewhere.
Doing an install with an unvented cylinder (not a problem in itself) they also want a water softner, is it able to go through the softner before getting to the multi function valve or will it reduce the flow and pressure down too much?

Hi all,
I am currently doing a diy project to creat a downstairs wc.
