Personal Shorthand: Combined Dictionary, Standard and Reverse FROM THE PUBLISHER
This dictionary is a vital resource for Personal Shorthand writers,
especially students of PS, and their teachers.
The Professional Combined Dictionary contains the same 20,000 words as the
Standard Dictionary (ISBN 0-89420-239-1), but adds a second complete
Reverse or Transcribing Dictionary, in which PS writers
can look up words by their shorthand, to find the longhand
equivalent(s). This can be a valuable aid, especially for beginners who have
difficulty reading or transcribing shorthand they have written. Moreover,
longhand words in the Reverse Dictionary are also syllabicated for users'
convenience.
No other shorthand can offer such a transcription aid, because the
symbols necessary in other systems can't easily be alphabetized! Thus, as the
only completely alphabetic shorthand, PS is uniquely easy to
learn and use.
A reference such as this can have special importance for those learning
PS at home -- or otherwise independently of schools or instructors
-- in
order to confirm their application of Theory principles as their practice
takes
them beyond the vocabulary used in the texts.
