AUTHOR OF "ECLECTIC SHORTHAND,'' " DICTIONARY OF ECLECTIC SHORTHAND, "ECLECTIC SHORTHAND LESSONS/' ETC. CHICAGO : S . C . G R I G G S AX D COMPANY, 1S92. COPYRIGHT, 1892, BY S. C. GR1GGS AND COMPANY PREFACE. 6 >- oc 10 This book, in the preparation of which the author has devoted a considerable part of several years, has been prepared because of frequent inquiries for a book of written phrases, from writers of the system in all parts of the country. It is based on the principles of the system as illustrated in the text-book, and will be easily comprehended and mastered by an earnest student. The author hopes and believes it will not only quite fully meet the want of all classes of writers of Cross's Eclectic Shorthand, but will also prove an invaluable aid in acquiring a practical speed in writing. CHICAGO, June i, 1892. iii 452147 INTRODUCTORY. Phrase writing consists in writing together in one outline the signs of words which are commonly uttered continuously, so that the writing may correspond to the natural utterance of them. For facility in learning the natural phrases we have arranged them under four classes. Class I. This class comprises phrases of two short words, the first of which is some common word, while the second word is one of the following, viz.: a, an; the, he ; I; 0, to ; you. In writing this class, the sign of the first word is written on position to express the second, i. e., on the first position to add a or an; on the second position to add the or he; on the third position to add /; on the fourth position to add or to, and on the fifth to add you. The signs of common words which are written on the several positions should be thoroughly memorized. The signs, except for the words all, as, before, have, if, are their written outlines. PHRASE WORDS OF THE FIRST CLASS. all after and have of before but by could . ,. if / on do > * n ^ or did J is / over don't _J> just /? paid for know n pay from never ^ that get nor / to had not ^ . when VI INTRODUCTORY. Class II. This class consists of phrases comprising three words of which the first and third are the same, while the second is a preposition or conjunction. They are written by connecting the sign of the first and third word, or by writing them side by side, the second word being implied by the joining or close proximity of the first and third. The most common of this class of phrases are as follows: // f I oo One by one day by day day to day day after day oz/er and over ez/er and ever forever and ever by and by better and better br/ghter and brighter broader and broader ha?/g to ha-ve' had to hand heart to heart i/em by item a/om by atom a^ain and again 4we to-time dwst to dust earth to earth tr^e to tree hzgher and higher nearer and nearer dearer and dearer drj'er ar.d dryer m0re and more a/1 in all and less to each ou/ and out hour by hour 1^ we r and lower Iz'ghter and lighter wzder and wider farther and farther o/der and older louder and louder >-(?ar after year sz'de by side - INTRODUCTORY. Vll Class III. This class is much more extensive, consisting of those phrases which comprise various common words. In writing them the first word is regularly written and the connected words are represented by the characters which would be used to express them if written separately; as, in the phrase can you come soon, the word can is written regularly and the y attached for you, to which is attached sn for soon. From many of this class, words may be entirely omitted, and still the phrase be clear; as, for illustration, / am of the opinion that, may be safely written, I am opinion that. ' As soon as possible, may be written soon possible. In this class all the alphabetic characters are used as signs for several common words which they express when written position- ally. So also are the several modified forms of the alphabetic characters which arise from lengthening and enlarging, shortening and making minute, and from shading. These modified characters are used for the common words which they express when written disconnectedly on the several positions. Class IV. This is not a new class but a combination of two, or all of the preceding; as, Do you think so; do you being of the first class and think and so of the third class; are you sure ; for the first time. The following lists contain the common words represented by the alphabetic characters. When disconnected they are to be written positionally, but when connected they are pure signs. The signs for the Class III phrases are found on the five pages next following: Following the pages of Class III phrase-word signs are three pages of additional signs, which the learner will readily under- stand and will appreciate. They are to be used separately as well as in phrase writing. The signs of i on ch position for which, and u on ch position for such are to be used only separately, not in phrases. All the signs should be thoroughly familiarized.
