Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dictation Studies: A Manual of Business Correspondence Designed Especially as a Text-Book for Advanced Work in Shorthand Departments of Schools and Colleges How and what to phrase while writing shorthand is a question of great importance, and one that should have special attention at the outset before the student starts on a course of dictation cover ing several hundreds of letters. To meet these requirements, the writer has prepared the lists shown on the first pages of this man ual. There are many expressions, the individual words of which are never written separately, and again, it is very easy for the student of limited experience to join words (very often large words) that should not be joined, and which no practical stenographer would join. Therefore, it will be necessary for him to carefully study the phrases suggested, and to be guided by them in carrying the principle into general use. The small list of special phrases will be found very useful, and should be carefully practiced, so as to be instantly written when ever heard. The writer believes that all familiar proper names should be written in shorthand; that the student should be trained to write these outlines in shorthand when they occur in the dictation, just as easily as any other word. By careful and accurate vocalizing, a large per cent of all proper names may be written in shorthand. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
