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.
Why is it that “such” has a left S? The ‘favoured’ way (I thought) was a right S.
(In the word “session” the right S is used. The word “sent” has (as the rule for putting curves outside a sharp angle) a right S. Similarly “sand”.)
I’ve only fairly recently realised that the left S is used in “such”, having written with facility the right S for quite a long while. The correct way feels and looks so odd to me.
