Gregg Shorthand - The Gregg Group was founded 22 May 2004, prompted by the lack of online shorthand resources. As the primary use for shorthand - business and legal recording - has waned in recent decades, we generally acclaim the skill as a hobby or personal tool. The purpose of the group is to promote the use of Gregg systems of shorthand by providing advice to beginners, support for students, and an association of users of this efficient, attractive, and enjoyable method of writing.

Mind Flip

GeneralWashbear28 July 20184

I had an interesting experience this week. For the past 3 years, I’ve written in Notehand more than longhand or printing (I journal in Notehand, and am an extensive Notehand note-taker).

Carlos 13 August 2018 at 12:32 pm on Outline for “electrical”"Electric" in Simplified and earlier was written disjoined (e-l)-k. So, for "electrical" you just add the l to the outline.
