Excerpt from Clark's Tangible Shorthand Instructor: The Only System Free of Word Signs; A Purely Phonetic System of 100 Characters and 12 Rules

All mankind express themselves by the use of articulate sounds.

These sounds are combined in different ways, by the human race, to record what we call words, and expressed by characters that represent elementary sounds which we call letters.

Should every race of the human family use the same charac ters to express the same sounds, less than fifty characters would record every elementary sound in existence.
