I am not sure you need a suffix for "ction."  There would always be other letters with it.

Can you give me examples?  A lot of the words I am thinking of are one stroke.  I use -X or *X if -X conflicts.

faction - FA*X

auction - AUX

suction - S*UX

section - S-X  (easier for me than S*EX)

Then there are other words with the NGS, like

compunction - KPUNGS

function - FUNGS

junction - JUNGS

But I am struggling to think of a word you would come back on another stroke with -X as -ction sufix.   I use the -X as accident and it works awesomely for me.  I do have a problem with the accuracy of several key combos that are close to each other and have changed several, but I don't have a problem with the comma and the accident stroke, personally.

Yes, it's my 'ction suffix, too, learned in Theory class.  not sure I could change it.

I had tried incorporating -BGS as 'accident' alone, but it has been my -ction suffix for so long, I can't do it.  I do SDENT.  I need to start drilling Mark's phrases on that one tho, as I do like them.  For 'scene of the accident' I add the -D to SDENTD.

Thanks, Patricia.  That's interesting.

I have SDEN for accident and SNEX for scene of the accident.

Thanks, Barb and Glen......anyone else?

oh, probably because it's in phrases.  I guess it's possible it's different with the Magnum Steno theory.  Anyone know?

-BGS is too close to my comma stroke.  I guess I could change my comma stroke.

Anyone have any input?

Hi, Wynne.

Looks like -BGS!

Note that all these entries are from the StenoMaster dictionary, so he might do something completely different these days.

Thanks, Glen.....so how does he do "accident"?

Hi, Wynne.

Mark uses the SD construct:

Disease:       STKAOE-Z

Disgust:       STK*U-S

Distruct:      STKRU-BGT

Distruction: STKRU-BGZ, etc.
