Excerpt from The Phonographic Dictionary and Phrase Book
All phonographic study and practise has for its object the empowering of the writer unhesitatingly to construct, upon sound phonographic principles, legible outlines expressive of each and all o'the words which may come to his ears in the course of a-report. The great mass of common words be come so familiar to the experienced reporter that he writes them not only without hesitation, but almost without thought. Nevertheless every day, if not every hour, Of his work may bring to him words which are rare, or even wholly new to him - so far as their phonographic forms are concerned, at least. For these words he has no familiar forms pictured in his memory, and if he is to report them truly he must [mi/(z outlines with lightning rapidity and with unfailing accuracy of formation. This power Of outline-building rests upon a prae tical mastery of the system of phonography as such, and it is to be acquired only through thorough study of phonographic prin ciples and much careful drill in applying these principles slowly and methodically to practise.
