Question Why?

So... "won't" and "will not" mean the same thing. "Won't" is a contraction of "will not". So why do we say "won't" when the word is "will", and not "wo"? Shouldn't it be something like "willn't" or "win't"?

I think we should all speak Newspeak from the book 1984, things would be much easier.

Or "doublepluseasy" methinks.
