Mark uses -Z for his plural, so BAKZ is backs for him where it's back pain for me. Steno is an individual thing, though, so whatever works for you works.

THRU- through
THRAOU - threw
I don't use "thru" in transcripts.
Comment by Gary Wolpow on June 3, 2009 at 19:25
I've seen -Z used for -pain in phrases.

Is that compatible with Mark's theory?
Comment by Gary Wolpow on June 3, 2009 at 19:05
Just thinking here...

through thraoug

thru thru

threw threfrp (where -FRP is -W)(no conflict with -MP in this outline)

Would these outlines work?
Comment by Gary Wolpow on June 3, 2009 at 19:00
Mark,

Looking at the keyboard, SKP489 could be and had many
where SKP- and 4 had 89 many (-PL)

Would I be correct in that?
Comment by Gary Wolpow on June 3, 2009 at 18:47
Mark,

You wrote...

In my theory, safe = SAEUF and save = SA*EUF. The -V sound always gets the asterisk with the -F.

Therefore,

I have = *EUF (V-sound)
ever = *FR
every = *EFR
may have = PHA*EUF

I learned -FR = ever and -EFR = every

How necessary is the * to make -V if there are no conflicts (eg. -of)?

Also, can ever be be written -FRB? Or, may have been PHAEU*FB?

If TEFT is testimony, then how is the word test written? (Let me hazard a guess... T*ES... or... T*EFT).

In Mark's theory, is -F used for -S (or -z) when appropriate?
Comment by Jaimie on June 1, 2009 at 16:37
Sounds good. Thanks, Mark! :)
Comment by Tami on June 1, 2009 at 16:35
Yes, thanks, Barb.

I read your post at my last break, went into court and wrote FAOR (test) and "for a" popped up.

What also happened within the first couple of pages after the break is the word "fire" came up for "for a" stacked. I write AEU for my standing-alone "a."

Another reason to get it in one stroke.

Jaimie,

My calendar is fairly clear at later in the year. I'll see what I can do. Remind me in a week or two and by then my assistant should have given me a date.
Comment by Jaimie on June 1, 2009 at 14:08
Hey Mark,
I just had a quick question. Are you planning on coming out to Sacramento, California anytime soon? I thought I read somewhere that you were coming in October, but now I can't find that anywhere. :) I have some people in my school that I really want to tell them to attend your seminar.
