gotta means got to or have to. gonna means going to. They are kinds of slang.

Gonna means I am going to or I was going to - I was gonna do that later.
Gotta means I got to - I gotta do something about that.
Both words are slang words so they won't be in the regular dictionary. Americans use ALOT of slang words.

The meaning of gotta is got to or have to. It means your must do something. "I gotta go to the the bathroom." Gonna means going to. "I am going to go the the bathroom." Gonna and gotta are not proper English words. That is why you can't find them in the dictionary. They are slang.

Gotta = need to do something not yet done = I've got to...
Gonna = planning to do a thing not yet done= I'm going to...

These are slang abbreviations.
Gonna is short for going to. I'm gonna see that girl. (I'm going to see that girl)
Gotta is short for got to. I gotta pass the exam. (I've got to pass the exam) meaning "It is necessary that I pass the exam)
These are both very commonly used words.

As I know, "gotta" just the simple word for "got to" words and "gonna" just the same, it's a "going to" words. used by american yes. but now english also use this words. not only these words, they also change "what you" to "watcha". it's simple and heard so nice for me ;-)
