I pulled shy of four thousand contractions from 44 GB of plain English text documents provided by Project Gutenberg (and sorted by frequency to pull words having more than 7 occurrences). ispell was quite helpful in whittlin' down the list by removin' spellin' mistakes. A few hundred that may have been erroneously tagged as a spellin' mistake I'm submittin' for your consideration.
I've separated British/Canadian words (they might be fine, I haven't checked).
