Do Not vs Don’t

Do not and Don’t are two kinds of usage in English grammar that show some difference between them. Don’t is the condensed form of the expression ‘do not’. Don’t is very frequently used in spoken English, whereas ‘do not’ is used frequently in written English. This is the major difference between the two forms.
