	As a math teacher I feel like many of these could be put on motivational posters in my classroom, because of the way the arrows in the answers look like greater-than signs. Example: "Can > can't". Short and to-the-point!

	Thankfully my 4th grade teacher tought me all the helping verbs in a little poem, was about the 3rd answer before I realized it was just a list of helping verbs, and away I went :)

	@Benwins: the symbology in linguistics is different from that used in mathematics. < means "comes from" while > means "evolved to". For example, peace < Latin pax (or, conversely, Latin pax > peace).

	I've read too many motivational posters. Apparently I just don't know the word "can't"...

	Did anyone else enter "try" with the secret hope that there would be a "do or do not, there is no try" bonus answer?

	Try as I might, my double contractions just aren't catching on. I shouldn't've expected them too, but at the same time I couldn't've kept such versatile words to myself. Or if you really want some class, try using a triple contraction: "I'dn't've seen that coming!"
