A: haha yeah I've never actually used the word ain't before, ironically. I was born on the east coast so I never grew up saying it, but my grandparents are from Georgia so I still get its meaning

A: It means ---> don't/ doesn't /am not /is not/ are not.

A: In English, you're not supposed to use double negatives (like "don't like no one" or "ain't belong to no one"). When you do, it's assumed that you're using slang, and you can turn it into a normal sentence by removing one of the negatives ("don't like no one" → "like no one" or "don't like anyone", "ain't belong to no one" → "belong to no one")

A: Informal short form for "am not", "are not", "is not", "has not", or "have not". Examples:

"I ain't going to the store unless you come with me" [am not]

"They ain't coming home until tomorrow afternoon" [are not]

"This ain't fair, you should have been punished" [is not]

"He ain't got any good music on this iPod" [has not]

"They ain't got anything good to say about you" [have not]

A: Ain’t = isn’t = is not

That ain’t true = that is not true

She ain’t here = she is not here

This ain’t good = this is not good = this is bad

This word is a slang word in English. We never use it in a formal setting

A: ain't means it isn't

so you would use it in the same way as it isn't
e.g. it ain't common to go to this shop

however, it is a slang expression so it would be best not to use it in formal language , or when you are learning .

A: You ain't seen nothing yet.

A: "Ain't" is just a slang for "is not" or "isn't". So you could say "this isn't yours" or "this ain't yours ".
Remember it's slang. Not proper English.

A: They have the same meaning. "Aren't" is the proper form, and "ain't" is slang/informal and used especially in the southern United States. It is not the form you should use at work, in writing, etc.
"The apples aren't ripe yet."
"The apples ain't ripe yet."

A: "ain't" is only used in certain types of English dialects [commonly in the southern United States]

They can be used in the same ways ["I ain't going to the park"/"I am not going to the park"] but ain't will be considered "less proper" and might sound odd from nonnative speakers.

A: They are just different ways of saying the same thing.

Here are different variations, starting with the most formal and ending with the most informal variations.

1. "It is not going to work."
2. "It's not going to work."
3. "It isn't going to work."
4. "It is not gonna work."
4. "It's not gonna work."
5. "It isn't gonna work."
6. "It ain't going to work."
7. "It ain't gonna work."

For reference, "ain't" is an informal alternative to "is not", "are not", or "am not"

A: "Ain't" is a negative form for some situations and it's not restricted to "am not". You can use it in the following cases = am not, is not, have/has not, do not, did not or will not.

For example:

There ain't a way to understand what she said.

(There's no...)

Stupid words ain't prevail for too long.

(stupid words don't/won't...)

He just bought a house and it ain't expensive.

(...and it isn't/it wasn't)


As you can see, there's no specific "formula" for the use of ain't.



I hope it helps you to understand.

A: Ain't is really only used in informal situations, and it tends to be used more in certain regions and dialects (here's a link that explains more: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ain%27t#:~:text=Ain%27t%20is%20commonly%20used,regional%20status%20or%20education%20level.)
:)
Also, even though "ain't" is technically grammatically correct, most people don't think it sounds right.
