What does english auxiliaries and contractions mean?

english auxiliaries and contractions
English auxiliary verbs are a small set of English verbs, which include the English modal verbs and a few others. Although definitions vary, as generally conceived an auxiliary lacks inherent semantic meaning but instead modifies the meaning of another verb it accompanies.

They also participate in subject–auxiliary inversion and negation by the simple addition of not after them.
