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.

Help. Is it b-u-ld-o-z-r or b-u-l d-o-z-r in Anniversary? This one seems to be stumping me as to how it should properly be written.
I just wanted to stop by and say hello and introduce myself. My name is Brenna and I’m in high school and I’m teaching myself Diamond Jubilee Gregg in my free time. I am now able to take notes with it, but I’m still very slow. 🙁 Here’s a small sample of my writing, an excerpt from…
Hi Everyone, I have a question regarding the long I and A following a vowel. The Simplified manual says “Any vowel following long I is represented by a small circle within the large circle.” What is the proper way to write these? Are you writing the large circle first and then the smaller circle inside?…

I thought I would post it here considering this is where some of his fan-base remains. Perhaps someone could shed some light onto its authenticity. I am not bidding on it myself. If…

Well, my book arrived today but instead of getting the 1955 Gregg Shorthand Simplified Functional Method 2nd. Edition (green cover), they sent me the regular simplified manual 2nd edition non-functional. If I had hair I’d pull it out – LOL Since the book was published before 1970 it’s not even going to have an ISBN…
Ugh… Ok, getting a little frustrated. I got approval (LOL) from my other half that I can buy a copy of the Gregg Simplified Functional (2nd Edition) manual… But, man it’s almost impossible to know if you’re looking at the correct book while searching through all these site like AbeBooks, eBay, Amazon, etc. etc… All…
I came across this book titled “Gregg Dictation and Transcription by Renshaw and Leslie”. Link here to access an online copy (note: you might have to download Adobe Digital Editions in order to borrow it from the online library).

Hello everybody! I have had a Gregg Simplified Dictionary for several years. The problem is, I don’t need it, and it’s damaged. One of the inside connections to the spine is completely torn.
