Excerpt from Phonography, for Schools and Colleges: A Course of Lessons in the Ben Pitman System
Part II of the book presents all those principles of abbreviation that are distinct from, and in advance of, the principles which form the broad basis of shorthand writing. Here are gathered in proper groups that large class of common words whose shorthand outlines are either abbreviations or modifications of those which would be secured by the application of some one or more of the standard principles presented in Part I. These lists give completeness to the student's vocabulary of con tracted and irregular forms. Beyond this, no dictionary is needed; all other words should be written in full, in accordance with general rules.
