Grant, those are great.  However, after doing this job for 28 years, I'd have to change my whole writing to do some of those.  

I learned some of that stuff from a few Kingslingbery (sp) seminars. 

He does final FR for were and FS for was so you can have 

THAUFR = that you were

THAIFS = that I was

Alll sorts of combinations.  Love them

TLAOKT = take a look at

TLAOK = take a look

Good idea, Sam :-)

Guess you could do TAO*EUP for atypical if you do TOIP for typical.

Thank you, LeAnne :-)

TOIP - typical

TO*IP - typically

Nothing for atypical though.

typical
atypical

Been wanting to contribute for the last entries.  I recently published my own theory called THE STENO WAY, based on the Philadelphia Clinic course principles.  However, there are things that I have picked up along the way over the years.  "This" and "that" in phrasing is one of those things, and so I've included them in my theory.

I use initial P- for "of" in phrases, such as PA = of a; PUR = of your.

I use final -P for "that" in phrases, too, as in:  FOP = for that; TOP = to that (TAUP = top).

I use final -J for "this" as in P-J = of this

Final -JS for "these" as in TOJS = to these

Final -JZ for "those" as in P-JZ = of those

While I tried many years ago to use SKP- for "and," it never felt comfortable, so I write it when alone as AND.  In a phrase, I use A as in AIN = and I know; AENGS = and he thinks; ARBS = and she is; AUL = and you will (A*UL = all).

If I use SKP- for anything, it would have to include an asterisk so I could "balance" my movements with both hands, and then I reserve it for some unusual word or name that keeps coming up, just as a temporary shortcut, so SKP*.

As for "expert opinion," I simply use SP-N.

It's always amazing to see the great ideas we all come up with.

I write expert - SPERT and opinion is P-N, so my expert opinion brief is SPERN.
