Overview

If you thought shorthand was difficult to learn, this book will change your mind. In these few pages the art of shorthand has been distilled into a simple skill anyone can learn. Fast writing is an essential skill for everyone who needs to taken notes. This is the primary textbook of the Tabor method of script shorthand for professional use - for journalists, reporters, secretaries and office personnel. This level uses simplified longhand letters; these are very easy to learn as they are all associated with, and derived from the writer's own familiar handwriting. Each letter is simplified to a single recognisable pen-stroke. The method is thus much easier and quicker to learn than the older geometric shorthand systems, but is equally fast to write. After years of research the theory has been reduced to a minimum. The method is based on two fundamental principles and three specific abbreviating rules. The latter deal with the sounds of T and D, R and L. Three frequently occurring prefix groups are presented together with some half-dozen common suffix groups. All these are based on familiar writing practice and are easy to remember. The textbook is designed for either self-study or classroom teaching. There are two parts; 1. Theory, and 2. Reading and writing practice. The simplicity of the system will enable you to write shorthand after only a few hours and to write it as fast as the older geometric systems.
