No, omission and contraction are not the same. Omission refers to the act of leaving out or excluding something, while contraction involves shortening a word or phrase by combining it with another and often replacing certain letters with an apostrophe. For example, "do not" can be contracted to "don't," whereas omitting could involve simply leaving out the word "not" entirely.
