  • Sorry, I don't think that only one is correct, I thought there was only one way to do contraction

You are not Julie.

= You're not Julie.

= You aren't Julie.

Both types of contraction are okay.

  • You might mention that with the verb to be there are two possibilities in the present tenses.....

  • It happens with the verb 'to have' also : You haven't done it. You've not done it.
