Bookmark or Share- When to use "I" or "I am" - English Language Learners Stack ExchangeIn fact, I've found that "I'm" is used before a verb, to be descriptive and to announce your location: "I am walking to the store", "I am a doctor", "I am at the store".

- A common mistake when using “I’m” - My English MattersSo every time you use “I’m”, you’re actually saying “I am”. Let me explain to you why the use of “I’m” in the above examples are incorrect.

- What's the difference between "I'm" and "I am"? [closed]You cannot write "A boy, I'm", but you can write "A boy, I am". 'I'm' may also be considered informal outside speech or a literary scope.

- I'm | English meaning - Cambridge DictionaryWhen I'm older, I'm going to be a famous artist. I get terribly nervous when I'm speaking in public.

- Is there any difference on the use of I'm and I am? [duplicate]2. (it was my downvote) No, they're not "the same". Among other differences, I'm is informal, and it's more common in speech than writing regardless of formality. Plus "I am" can stand alone as a two-word reply to a question (from someone asking whether you're a native speaker or not, for example).
