Description
Excerpt from Lewis'' Alpha Vowel Position Shorthand System: Text Book; A System of Shorthand Having a Complete Alphabet, Vowel Characters With Consonants Attached, Compound Consonants by Union of Consonant Characters, and Position Writing of Vowels
Speed may be attained, however, by practice, and a writer taking rapid utterance will be able to meet all requirements by the use of this system, and at the same time make a record that can be read and which never grows cold.
Compound consonant signs which are the bane of most systems, in this system follow logically from the alphabet characters and each other, and in union with vowel characters form a system capable of unlimited multiplication of word forms. The similarity of the movements of writing to the movements of longhand writing, the forward direction of the ?ow, the curve of the signs used and the construction of the entire word form without lifting the pen, lead to an ease of formation and speed in writing found in no other system of equal legibility.
The ability to write in full, by syllables or in vowel posi tion at the will of the writer makes this system unique among shorthand methods, while its logical construction, keeping always in view the memory laws of association and similarity of form and sound, makes its acquirement and retention a matter of surprising ease and rapidity.
