uncontracted
Kept fully extended
Uncontracted means not shortened or reduced.
In grammar, an uncontracted form uses the full words rather than a contraction: do not rather than don't, I am rather than I'm.
Uncontracted language tends toward formality or emphasis.
In other contexts, uncontracted describes muscles that haven't tensed or agreements that haven't been entered into.
