How do you write the name?

[Yvette LaRochelle]

How do you write the name Harrison? I have been trying and trying to find a way to write it and just can't seem to get it. Does anyone know of any online dicitionarys that have names in steno?

[Cathryn Bauer]

This may not be what you want, but I usually write HAE*URS/KWROPB (KWR~ being the way I distinguish many suffixes). A good one-stroker to use on the fly would certainly be helpful, though.

[Marla Sharp]

Are you asking how to spell Harrison or how to write it in steno? If you mean steno, try HA*EURNS or HA*EURS. Check out the Brief Club group on here. Those people throw around briefs like nobody's business. If you were asking about the spelling, you've got it right. I've never seen another spelling for it.

Hi Marla, Thanks loads for the outline but for some reason it will not translate. I get HAIRNS or HAIRS. I have even tried the R-R. Oh well....lol I guess I will have to have a talk with my teacher about the translation problem. I do appreciate the help though. Oh yes, I am a member of the Brief Club but couldn't find the right translation either. Take care:)

[Marla Sharp]

Hey, Yvette. I'm not sure what you mean by "the right translation"? Are you in school? Are you trying to define a word not in your dictionary? Are you not allowed to add your own dictionary entries and are forced to use the school's dictionary? Try HAEURS/SON.

I have been using -FN for my -son suffix in names. I'd probably do it HAIFRPB.

Oh, just reading the replies. My question is like Marla's -- what do you mean, won't translate? Put something in and define it. I don't know that I'd keep HAIFRN as a permanent outline in my dictionary (unless I had a client with that name or a judge or something), but I'd definitely enter it as a job entry. Most propers are going to be something YOU enter, not something your software will automatically know.
