Excerpt from Pitman's Shorthand Writing Exercises and Examination Tests: A Series of Graduated Exercises on Every Rule in the System and Adapted for Use by the Private Student or in Public Classes
E It is scarcely necessary to say that this work is not intended to take the place of Pitman's Shorthand Instructor or any of the other text-books of the system. It is supplement ary to those, and the Exercises herein contained will be most correctly written, and with the greatest benefit to the student, if he will take care always to refer to his text-book before commencing to work the Exercises on any rule. Attention to this, and to the brief directions at the head of the Exercises, will enable the student to work through the various sections with few or no mistakes.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive and structured approach to mastering Pitman's Shorthand, a popular shorthand system that was widely used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The author provides a series of exhaustive exercises designed to help students learn each rule of the system, expand their shorthand vocabulary, and develop their skills in both writing and reading shorthand. This step-by-step method allows learners to acquire proficiency in shorthand from the very beginning of their studies, rather than needing to wait until later to practice dictation and transcription. The book emphasizes the importance of understanding the meaning of words when transcribing shorthand notes, which enhances both accuracy and speed. The exercises also feature numerous illustrations of word-building principles, enabling students to create their own shorthand outlines for countless words. The author stresses the significance of frequent reference to a standard shorthand textbook, a testament to the importance of foundational knowledge in this intricate system. Throughout the exercises, the author highlights the practical applications of shorthand, illustrating how it can be used to efficiently record spoken words, such as in business, legal, and political settings. The book also includes a dedicated section on phraseography, providing students with shortcuts and symbols for commonly used phrases, further boosting their shorthand efficiency. By providing a thorough foundation in the principles and practice of Pitman's Shorthand, this book equips learners with a valuable skill set that can enhance communication and productivity.
