Facility Drill Books - PhrasingNEW ITEM (18 July 2020)

Pitman Shorthand PDF For Stenographer Grade C and D. The candidates will have to appear for the Skill Test in Stenography. The candidates will be given one dictation for 10 minutes in English/ Hindi at the speed of 100 words per minute (w.p.m) for the post of Stenographer Grade ‘C’ and 80 w.p.m. For the post of Stenographer Grade ‘D’. In Pitman, you write the consonant sounds first to form a shorthand 'outline' and then, if necessary, mark in the vowels. In many instances, no vowel marks are necessary. Vowels should, however, be marked in full the first time a proper name is mentioned (or if the name has an unfamiliar spelling, it should be spelled out in regular letters).

Please see Links/Shorthand Books page for downloads from other sources of Instructor, Key and Shorthand Dictionaries.

Personalised notepad and strokes reminder list with ring binder divider tabs

The pages in the PDF are designed specifically for writing the ideal size of Pitman's Shorthand and enable you to produce your own shorthand pads at low cost, thus encouraging plenty of writing practice which is your key to progress. If you fill in the uncut pages with your own practice material, you can keep them as masters and produce endless ready-made drill books but you must take the time to check that the shorthand is accurate.

You can choose paper quality that is best for your pen or pencil. A paper that feels smooth may be too absorbent, so test with your ink pen first. The pads need to be bound with long loose treasury tags or smooth cord, so that the pages can turn easily. They are therefore not suitable for important dictations, as the pages under your hand do not sit as firmly or turn as smoothly as they would in a normal spiral bound pad. There are 14 line colours, with margins, a numbered line page, strokes reminder list, cover pages, and A5 ring binder tabs so that you can create your own shorthand resource folder.


Shorthander's self-improvement kit

Margins are given on both sides to accommodate the space available on A4 paper, which is slightly bigger than the width of two notepads, but as they are principally practice pads, the extra space will not go to waste, as you can fill it all with practice outlines.

These are small booklets of all the strokes, vowel and short forms 6.5x9.5cm/2½x4', to keep in your pocket or purse, to enable you to read and practice in spare moments when you are away from your study material.

There are also empty ruled pages, so that you can produce your own pocket-sized reading material, copying out passages from your shorthand books. These can also be used for unobtrusive practice, going over the outlines with a hard pencil that makes virtually no mark.

The 120 Most Frequent Word List on the Word Lists page is also presented as folded booklets.
