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.
I had some fun reviewing these brief forms from a prior post but a few have me confused. Probably this is because I learned Series 90 and this list is Anniversary edition.
I include the image of the outlines that I cannot understand.
The original chart is here

This is the 1916 New and Revised Edition (not Anniversary). From left to right: find, wife, society, better, clerk, God, corporation, mortgage, jury (July), significant (significance), merchant, fault, vowel, truth, pupil, sir, typewriter.
For "merchant", the t is missing, but I have another version of the same chart in which that outline was corrected. Unfortunately, it is smaller in size than this one, so it's not worth scanning it.
Thank you! In particular "merchant" was driving me crazy. It is out of order alphabetically.
You’re welcome. The list is not in alphabetical order, but it follows the order presented in the ninth lesson of the 1916 manual. The word “merchant” was added to complete the chart, even though it is not officially in the lesson either.
