Never write “wanna” unless you’re a teenager and you’re sending an SMS to another teenager. Even then, please don’t ;)

“Wanna” is a graphical representation of the usual pronunciation of “want to” and “want a” (IPA /wɑnə/). In speech, use it whenever you would use “want to” or “want a,” but avoid using such reduced forms if you’re talking slowly and clearly. That’s really all there is to it.

One more thing — we usually ask questions using an auxiliary verb and inversion, so you should ask "when do we use...."

I would not consider "words" like wanna, gonna, and kinda to be slang.  Is there a category of English called trash?

I will never write "wanna" to my close friend. :)

Wanna is slang and is only used between close friends.  Instead use "want to"  

I hope that this helps you.

It's the same... The difference is when we use wanna, we don't use "to" for example:


I want to dance > I wanna dance
