The Manual of Natural Shorthand

Angebote / Angebote:

Excerpt from The Manual of Natural Shorthand: Designed for Class or Self-InstructionAnother point of greatest importance is that of the assignment of the shorthand characters to individual let ters. Anyone conversant with other connective vowel systems, will have observed that the simplest characters have not always been assigned to the most frequent let ters, but to such letters or rather, sounds, as insure the most facile combinations. In other words: the value of a stenographic character is determined not so much by its frequency, as by its combination with other letters. It is a principle that underlies the construction of every connective vowel system, it is a problem that can be solved only after years of arduous labor and experi ments.The most important consonants with reference to combination are t, d, r, l, and w. In Natural Shorthand, t and d not only readily join with all vowel strokes, but medially and finally connect with consonant and vowel strokes, and that with a single effort of the hand. This is a feature characteristic with Natural Shorthand only, and unhesitatingly and truthfully we put it forth as the most logical and successful solution of the Lengthening Principle in the history of English Shorthand. It more than compensates for the so-called Blends and Double Consonants of other systems, which because of their vague and unsettled character, we do not consider a desideratum in modern shorthand writing.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
