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.
Hello,
My French DJS manual says that -sh is a descending stroke that takes up half of the writing space, and it describes -sion as a “small” descending stroke, which looks definitely shorter than -sh.
However the English Anniversary manual says that “The suffix shun (sion, tion) is expressed by sh”.
Is there really a difference in length between the various series when it comes to “shun” and “sh”?
Thanks.
