“ain’t” isn’t a contraction. It’s just spelled that way. It’s really just one syllable.

“ain’t” IS a contraction (of “am not” and “are not”). So sayeth Merriam-Webster, Wikipedia and the Oxford English Dictionary.

Doesn’t make a diff. I don’t have to either follow or break the rule I propose.

With the apostrophe thingy in it, sure looks like a contraction to me, does it not?

Doesn’t make a diff. You do have to follow rule number 5, “Must have more than one syllable”. KO correctly pointed out that this rule was not followed. Ain’t ain’t got but the one syllable.https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ain%27t
