What is the shortened version of that is?

The most common shortened version of "that is" is "that's".

Here are some other less common options:

* 'Tis: This is an archaic form of "it is" and is rarely used in modern English.

* That: This can be used in some informal contexts, but it can be confusing as it's also the word for "that".

Example:

"That is a beautiful painting." can be shortened to "That's a beautiful painting."
