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.
Maybe this has been asked before. I don’t recall. I was wondering what everybody’s take is with regards to writing their shorthand on ruled or unruled paper? Just about every video on YouTube and elsewhere on the Internet it seems that everyone writes on unruled paper. Anyone care to chime in? Thanks! 🙂
Anyone want to take a kick at these two outlines? The sentence is from the 1st ed. Simplified Functional Manual, assignment 63, bottom of page 290. “We-are giving-you this advance notice so-that ______ _______ by our… (closing for three days [next page]). I’ve been doing well without a key for 10 lessons and this is…
I’m not sure if anyone out there has seen this website before but I happened to stumble upon it this afternoon. It looks like it will convert text to Gregg Shorthand. http://home.tu-clausthal.de/%7Erzsjs/steno/Gregg.php I think it is pretty cool.
I’m doing a birds-eye view of Simplified, at least the parts I’ve done so far. It’s a good review, and will help me decipher unknown words. So far, all the disjoined prefixes are above the words, and the disjoined suffixes are below. (At least they start below. “thousand dollars” travels upwards.) I haven’t seen any…
Having become a bit of a GS Anniversary used book addict :-), I keep looking on eBay and at the used books at Amazon, Abebooks, alibris, etc. I have already purchased: Anniversary – Functional Method Part 1 Anniversary – Functional Method Part 2 Gregg Shorthand – Anniversary Edition (for reference) Gregg Shorthand Dictionary 5,000 Most…
Hi People!!! Take a look to this text written in Anniversary: http://ocastro.webs.com/taqui/HTWG.jpg Regards, OSVALDO
I was looking at the Gregg Shorthand key dictionary the other day, and I think it is a great resource. Why don’t I make some sort of bulk translation tool with it? I think it would work better without the dashes (sorry if I’m stepping on anyone’s toes) and I am not aware of software…
I’m reading through the reviews of “The Gregg Shorthand Manual Simplified (Hardcover)” in Amazon, and while the reviews are mostly very positive, I found three of them hilarious. In the first one, the reviewer gave the book one star, and titled the review “Old Stuff!.” It reads: “The book is copyrighted 1955; it talks of…
So I now find that I have been writing PreAnni for two days. Two days _in toto_ that is, as I keep a running sum of the time of each learning session. This is far from exact measure, though, as it includes reading a thing in the textbooks before writing it. In trying to minimize…
I apologize I cannot remember the URL I copied this article from. I thought it was an interesting read. I am not saying that I’ve always wanted to be a spy or that the Lord High Admiralty of Secret Keepers would accept me even if I tried. But I do admirate espionage…at least when it…
