Since Orthic is orthographic, you can write out words in full quite easily, and without dropping out of shorthand. Orthic was created to be used professionally. Callendar was a physicist/scientist/engineer and he created it out of his own need to take down notes, perform research, etc. Quite successfully!
It’s got more briefs and shortcuts and an audio CD, so if Teeline is your jam, it’s a wonderful resource for mastering it. The older teeline gold book is kind of in between. I felt it was still pretty easy to skim for a summary, but it had a ton more practice material than Teeline Fast. No audio though.
I'm interested in learning shorthand, mostly for fun, but also for note-taking at work and while playing D&D. Teeline seems like a good choice. I just ordered a used copy of Teeline Fast ("very good" so no notes in the margins or anything), but I'm also considering the Silver package on teelineshorthand.org
Most systems can be read forever, if you follow them and are consistent with how you personalize them. The Gregg shorthand group often writes passages for each other to read. No system can be read for long if you don't write clearly or keep changing it. Gregg shapes have subtle differences. It's very easy to write a line the wrong length, or ...
Pitman shorthand is phonetic. It is easier to learn when compared to other shorthand writing systems. Pitman shorthand will live forever. In India it is giving jobs to several youth. In Judiciary, legislature and in government departments, the demand for stenographers is still existing.
Looking into it now since Forkner and I are not meshing. i never was good at cursive lol. I’d guess it took around 4/5 months for me to get past 100wpm, but that was with 60-90 minute lessons every day. If you start going for Teeline my biggest tip would be to practice every day! 5 minutes every day will work so much better than an hour once ...
Having learnt many systems in the past I have to say that an easier shorthand will suffice for everyday things. The more complicated ones do gives you faster speed, but they do take at least 2-3 years of training to even begin to applying to real world. Forkner and Teeline are pretty popular and both are faster to learn.
I have a 100wpm 10min shorthand test coming up in February or march, around 4 5 months to prepare. Which shorthand method do you suggest to learn in such a short time frame from today onwards as an absolute beginner? I started looking up teeline shorthand on YouTube. I can study only 45 minutes a day since I'm working 8 hours.
Hugh_Bourbaki. • 3 yr. ago. Teeline is in principle, very simple, but the complexity is introduced when you start focusing on smoothness of your outlines and transitioning between characters like r and l to t and d or distinguishing between t and d. The other major component is using suffixes and prefixes to modify the outlines.
Good luck! I learned Gregg 10 years ago out of curiosity and still use it every day. Not for taking down the spoken word, but for anything that needs writing down, for convenience. i recommend starting with teeline, because you can literally learn it in a day. then you can do gregg, because it's sooo much cooler.
