i FEW WORDS ABOUT TORDSIGNS, COMTRACTIONS AND KRASES
During the preparation tf tkis workthe writer— then a writer of Graham (Pitmanic) shorthand- -seeking to abridge thevery long lists of wordsigns and contrac-tions that he had nastered, prepared alist of about 900 words. Selecting ablock of 1000 words from testimony, and1000 from correspondence, and fro* newsitems, and from editorial work, and check-ing each 1000 words with his 900 list of
wordsigns and contractions, making liketests again and again, he arrived at prac-tically the result here given, which is
taken from four such checked lists nowbefore him. These checked lists showtliat in one or more of the blocks of 1000words, a list of about 60 words includesall that were used five or more times each;and in one or more of such selections of
1000 words, a list of 12 to 15 includedall words used 2, 3, or 4 times each; andthat beyond this, words of the 900 list donot furnish more than two, three, or fourwords in any 1000, of any English conposi-tion. This work presents lists of thesefrequently recurring words, and a few oth-er words less frequently used; and includestherewith some useful and easily memorizedcontractions and phrase signs.
At the end of the Writing Lessons willbe found a fuller list of word- and phrase
-
signs and contractions, which the student
ay learn after the general course is com-pleted, or after actual business employment
Where words of this longer list occurin the Writing Lessons, they are given the
abbreviated forms, and these the studentwill become familiar with as they occur.
The instruction given in paragraphs 31and 32 of the Text may be ignored, becauseof this changed arrangement of the wordsigns
A single character, denoting a word, i
a wordsign. An outline consisting of morethan one character, but not a full represen-tation, is a contraction. A character, orjoined characters, representing two or morewords, is a phrase sign.
Note that one sign may be, in some in-stances, used for each of two or acre words,and the student may depend upon the factthat in each of these cases safety in read-ing has been secured.
A dotted line is here used to showwords to be written in first position—abovethe line, or in third position— through orbelow the line. Words to be written in thesecond position— resting on the line, arehere written without dotted lines.
In the list 31 a., all the tick word-signs are written douuward, except the ticksfor "on" and "should", which are writtenupward. .
Be very thorough with the wordsigns andcontractions as you proceed with study.
