Thank you for this question.
In regards to Dialect - EBAE RULE X. 34.e states: Part-word contractions should be used rather liberally in dialect.
In regards to contraction usage – EBAE RULE XIII. 40.b states: When two or more lower-sign contractions follow one another without being in contact with an upper sign, the final lower-sign contraction must not be used.
Ex: comin' [simbraille]-in'[/simbraille]
I hope this helps
