PREFACEf The preparation of the Anniversary Edition of the Gregg ShorthandManual was a big undertaking. When it was finished, there remained tasksalmost as great in the revision of "Progressive Exercises," "Gregg SpeedStudies," and the keys to all these books. These done, we were obliged torevise all of the supplementary books in harmony with the changes that hadbeen made. It is with a sigh of relief that we put the finishing touches onthis Dictionary, which practically completes the series.In the revision of all the basic texts, we were not content with changing the forms for words affected by the changes in the Anniversary Edition,or with substituting new exercises in accordance with the new arrangementof the rules and material, because we wanted to give effect to many improvements suggested by our study and experience with the old editions, or whichwere suggested by our many teacher friends. All the books incorporate newideas, new material, new methods.Now as to this Dictionary: The new features are fully set forth in theIntroduction-features that I believe will render the book much more valuable than any previous edition.In sending it forth, I desire to acknowledge my indebtedness to Mr.Rupert P. SoRelle and Mr. Louis A. Leslie for their assistance in compiling the lists of words used, and in classifying them in the manner set forth inthe Introduction. Special credit should be given Mrs. Winifred KennaRichmond for the artistic manner in which she has written the shorthandforms.JOHN ROBERT GREGG.
INTRODUCTIONA dictionary is primarily a reference book. A good dictionary, however,properly used, should be far more than that. This is particularly true of ashorthand dictionary, which should be a guide so clear that a beginner canreadily locate the shorthand outline for any given word, but which at thesame time should possess all the resources needed to satisfy th.e most advancedwriter, whether a teacher or a court reporter.The Gregg Shorthand Dictionary should not only teach the beginner,but should help the expert to crystallize his knowledge by careful classification of the shorthand forms and consistency in the use of abbreviating devices.In the present dictionary, we have endeavored to do these things. In thisbrief Introduction we shall state some of the principles followed in obtainingconsistency of outline. These rules cover the treatment of some frequentsound combinations, and a thorough acquaintance with them will often makeit unnecessary to refer to thtt word list itself for an outline.One of the most fascinating featu res of Gregg Shorthand is the mannerin which the principle of analogy is applied. Nothingis more helpful to theshorthand writer than this principle properly used In effect, it means that,once you have learned the forms for one or more words of any classification,you may then write any similar word ending in the same way. For example,when you know the shorthand forms for agitate and hesitate, and thereforeknow that the ending tate is expressed by to, you can write any similar words,such as dictate or imitate.In other words, the material given in this Introduction is not to be memorized, but is to be studied intelligently in order that you may see the underlying principles governing the formation of the outlines. Nothing is arbitrary-there is always a reason why, even though at first sight it may not beapparent.iv
GREGG SHORTHAND DICTIONARYvFirst, we should explain that the following have been eliminated as beingunnecessary :1. Short, simple words that any student who is still working on the earlypart of the Manual can easily write, such words as cat,dog, etc.2. Purely "dictionary words." Every word in the list of nearly 19,000is a word in good usage. If any of the words seem unfamiliar to you, however,look them up in an ordinary English dictionary and jot down the definition inyour shorthand dictionary.3. Certain derivatives that are formed in accordance with the rules givenin the textbook, such as the numerous derivatives of the suffix u/ate, and someothers. In order to save space and make room. for more root words, a complete table of these suffix derivatives is given in this Introduction. In casethere should be doubt as to the correct writing of one of the derivatives, reference to this table will make the matter clear.The Gregg Shorthand Dictionary contains the following indiospensablefeatures:1. A list of the 19,000 most frequently used words in the English language. The words for which the shorthand forms are immediately obvioushave been omitted.2. Many past tenses, plurals, and other derivative forms that were notincluded in previous editions of the shorthand dictionary.3. Derivatives in every case grouped under the root word in easily accessible form. Since the root words in type project slightly beyond the marginof the type column. the finding of any word is greatly facilitated-it is necessary only to look down the comparatively small list of root words that standout at the left of each column.4. Direct derivatives. and in some cases closely allied words. are listedunder their root words. This has been done in order to emphasize the value ofthe analogical building of outlines, and also in the belief that the practice ofa group of related outlines is more valuable than the practice of the isolatedoutlines.FOUR FREQUENTLY USED DERIVATIVESThe four derivatives most frequently formed are the past tense, the plural.the negative. and the comparative and superlative degrees of adjectives.THE PAST TENSE. It may be helpful to summarize and condense the rulesgiven in the Manual for the formation of the past tense.
viGREGG SHORTHAND DICTIONARY1. After abbreviated words, a disjoined t is placed close to the precedingcharacter to express the past tense. This includes:a. Brief forms, as in changed.b. Words written in accordance with the abbreviating principle,as in established.c. Words written with a suffix, as in insulted.d. Words in which the last letter of the primitive form is omitted:as in demanded.2. A disjoined t is used to express the past tense after words written infull when the joining of the t or d would not give a distinctive orfacile outline, as in fancied, glared, neared.3. The past tense is expressed by joined t or d:a. After words written in full, as in printed, checked, except inthe few cases coming under the preceding paragraph.b. Ih derivatives ending in ct, as in contracted.c. In verbs ending in I, the special method described in paragraph 136 in the Manual is used, as in killed.d. After suffixes that give a facile and legible joining, as inmentioned. stipulated.e. After many brief forms containing the last character of theword. as in asked. charged. worked.PLURALS. The formation of plurals is clearly explained in paragraphs55, 74, and 83 in the Manual.NEGATIVE FORMS. The·vowel is omitted in the prefixes en. in. un.em. im. um when the prefix is followed by a consonant, as in unseen. impossible, unmask, uninvited. unimportant.When a vowel follows a prefix, the initial vowel is written, as in uneasy,unless the vowel that follows belongs to another prefix or to a brief form, inwhich case it is not necessary to insert the vowel in the negative prefix, as ininexpensive. unorganized.Negative words beginning with un or im in which the n or m is doubledare distinguished from the positive forms by omitting one of the doubledconsonants and inserting the initial vowel, as in unknown. immodest.COMPARATIVE AND SUPERLATIVE FORMS. The comparative form of an adjective is usually written by simply joining an r to the primitive form, as in
GREGG SHORTHAND DICTIONARYviiQuicker. slower. If. however, the adjective is written in full and ends inastraight line, the reversing principle is used for the comparative form, as inlarger, later; when a brief form ends with the last consonant of a word, thereversed circle is used to make the comparative form after straight lines, as insooner. stranger; after brief forms. abbreviated words, and words ending in areversed circle. a disjoined r is used. as in worker, purer, nearer, unlessthe joined form is distinctive, in which case it may be used, as in smaller,greater.The termination est is expressed byes in words ending in a consonantwhen the word is written ;in full, as in cheapest, broadest. This rule alsoapplies to brief forms or contractions when the final consonant of the shorthand form is also the final consonant of the word, as in soonest, strangest.The termination est is usually expressed by a disjoined st after briefforms, abbreviated words, or words ending in a vowel, as in stillest, busiest.but the st may be joined when a distinctive form is obtained, as in fuliest,truest.FORMATION OF ADVERBS. Adverbs formed by the addition of ly to theadjective are written in shorthand by adding the small circle, signifying ly,to the primitive form of the adjective. The only exceptions to this rule arefriendly, immediately, thoroughly, respectfully.THE ENDING TIONSo many words end with the suffix tion, in its various spellings, that informing derivatives a shorthand outline is considered to end with the finalletter of a word if the word ends with the suffix tion. By so doing, that greatclass of words may be written in accordance with such rules as those in paragraphs 76 and 59 (2) of the Anniversary Manual.Words ending in tionist are written with the joined es, as in abolitionist,evolutionist, elocutionist. So, also, we are able to use the reversed circle forsuch forms as auctioneer, stationer, executioner, and the joined d for formslike mentioned, commissioned, old fashioned.Other examples showing the manner in which the outlines ending intion, sion, cien may be regarded as written in full are such classes of words asprofessional, national. provisional, sensational, rational; efficient, deficient,proficient; efficiency, deficiency, proficiency.
VlllGREGG SHORTHAND DICTIONARYTHE ENDING ATET is omitted in the terminations rate, late, tate. The t is written in theterminations fate, vate, mate, nate. The at is omitted in the terminations cate,.gate. The following brief list of examples will make this clear:accurate, commemorate, confederate, decorate, liberate, narrate,·-rateobdurate, operate, penetrate, perpetrate, venerate, vibrate. (In afew words the abbreviating principle is applied: cooperate, elaborate, inaugurate, recuperate, refrigerate, separate. To form derivatives add s for -rates, a disjoined v for -rative, a disjoined r for-rator.)-lateannihilate, desolate, dilate, disconsolate, inflate, isolate, mutilate,oscillate, scintillate, translate, violate, ventilate.agitate, annotate, devastate, dictate, facilitate, felicitate, gravitate,-tatehesitate, imitate, irritate, necessitate, rotate, vegetate.

(Write gsh for -gation in words so abbreviated. Theabbreviating principle is applied to delegate, promulgate. Wewrite in full legate, frigate.)
GREGG SHORTHAND DICTIONARYIXMODIFICATION OF WORD FORMSIn forming compound words, it is often necessary to change somewhatthe form of one of the words. Examples of this are: cobweb, featherweight,flywheel, footwear, neckwear, hoodwink, horsewhip, lukewarm, milkweed., whirlwind.FREQUENTLY RECURRING SYLLABLESThe principle of analogy is of the greatest value to the writer of a systemin which it may be used to its fullest extent, as is the case with Gregg Shorthand. We shall point out q,ere some of the useful analogical forms that are notgiven as such in the Manual; many of them fall under the abbreviating principle. In order to conserve space, the shorthand forms are not given, as theymay easily be ascertained from the word list of this dictionary. Knowing theoutline for anyone of the words. and knowing that all similar combinationsare written analogically, it will be a simple matter to construct the outlines foryourself. The lists are given for convenience in practice and so that youmay study the application of the principle:-ishabolish, banish, blemish, brutish, burnish, cherish, childish, famish, finish, flourish, foolish, furnish, girlish, nourish, perish, polish,punish, relish, Spanish, stylish, tarnish; vanish, varnish.-letbooklet, bracelet, circlet, coverlet, eyelet, gauntlet, gimlet, goblet,inlet, outlet, ringlet, streamlet, tablet, violet.
