📝 INDENTION OF THE ANSWER

In our Question-and-Answer format, the answer is indented so we can immediately identify the witness’s answer separately from the question.

This simple formatting is very helpful during read-back in court proceedings. When we look at the transcript or our notes, we can quickly see where the question ends and where the answer begins. It also helps the stenographer follow the testimony more easily, especially when working at speed.

Question
Answer — indented

A simple indentation can make a big difference in reading and organizing the testimony. ✍️💜

Accuracy first, then speed.

📝 INDENTION IN COURT STENOGRAPHY

Why do we indent the answer?
In a Question-and-Answer format, indenting the answer helps us immediately distinguish the witness’s answer from the question.
This simple format becomes especially helpful during read-back in court proceedings. At a glance, the stenographer can easily follow where the question ends and where the answer begins.

📖 Q → Question
A → Indented Answer

For a stenographer, proper formatting is not only about neatness. It can also help us read, follow, and retrieve the testimony more efficiently—especially when working with speed.

Accuracy first, then speed. ✍️💜

✍️ STENOGRAPHY & STENOGRAPHER

Let’s take a closer look at these strokes from the Gregg Shorthand Anniversary Edition — Unit 32: Analogical Word-Endings—Disjoined. 📖✍️
In this lesson, Gregg introduces several disjoined word-endings, where the vowel preceding the ending is understood. One of the endings shown is -ography / -egraphy, used in words such as:

📌 phonography
📌 photography
📌 geography
📌 lithography
📌 stenography
📌 typography
📌 typographic

So when we write STENOGRAPHY, we are not simply shortening the spelling of the word. We are applying the principle of the analogical word-ending taught in this particular edition.
And from stenography comes stenographer—the person who practices the art and skill of stenography. 📝

This is one reason I always remind fellow learners:
Know the book you are studying. Know its principles. Then read the stroke according to that system. ❤️

Different Gregg editions may have differences in outlines and principles, so when we see another form, let’s not immediately say one is wrong. It may simply belong to another edition. 😊
For me, learning the Anniversary Edition has been a journey of understanding its principles, trusting the system, and appreciating the beauty behind every stroke.

Keep writing. Keep reading. Keep learning.

A QUERIES ABOUT CSC STENOGRAPHER'S EXAM🥰🥰🥰.

😊 You may visit or contact the CSC office in your area and ask about the schedule and examination venue for the CSC Stenography Examination. I also asked the CSC about this before, and I was informed that the schedule may depend on the number of interested examinees. If there are enough applicants requesting the examination in your area, the CSC may consider setting a schedule there. It’s also good to regularly check the official CSC website for announcements and examination schedules. There was a previous Stenography Examination conducted at the CSC Central Office, where examinees were asked to bring their laptops for encoding the dictation instead of using the traditional typewriter.
So, if you would like the examination to be conducted in your area, you may coordinate with other interested stenography examinees and submit a request to the CSC.The number of requests may be a factor in arranging an examination schedule.
I hope this helps, and good luck po! 😊📝

Dearest Learners, ❤️✍️

When I first started using the Anniversary Edition, honestly, I could hardly understand its strokes. Some of them were so unfamiliar that I couldn't even imagine how I would ever write them naturally. Haha! 😄

But instead of doubting the system, I chose to trust its principles, embrace its beauty, and patiently learn its language.

Over time, what once seemed strange became familiar. What I could hardly understand before became something I learned to appreciate deeply.

Sometimes, learning is not about immediately understanding everything — it is about loving the process, trusting the principles, and giving yourself enough time to grow with it.

That is how my journey with the Anniversary Edition became more than just learning shorthand — it became a connection with a system I truly learned to love.

To all my learners who feel lost with the strokes right now — trust the beauty, love the process. You will get there. 💌

With love,
Ruth/Teacher Ruth shorthand stenography

⚖️✍️ THE STROKE THAT SERVES THE COURT

With every stroke, a story is born,
In courtroom halls from dusk till morn;
Whereas the witness speaks with care,
The stenographer records it there.
Through every word, through every sound,
The truth is faithfully written down.

However, the hearing may be long,
The work demands a spirit strong;
Therefore, with courage, hand, and pen,
We write the words again and again.
Like soldiers standing firm in war,
We serve the Court we labor for.

Whereas a Resolution states what shall be,
And a Decision speaks of what the Court may decree,
Every phrase, each finding, each legal view,
Must be captured faithfully and true.
Accordingly, through dedication and care,
The stenographer remains always there.

This skill may pass from one generation to another,
From teacher to learner, sister to brother;
A treasured craft that time cannot erase,
For accuracy and speed must share the same place.
Through years of service, sacrifice, and strife,
These strokes become a pathway to a better life.

So let every stenographer stand with pride,
With courage and duty forever as guide; for every salary is earned through sacrifice,
Through countless hearings, day after day.
May every Court remember, wherever we go—
The hands that write the law help justice flow. ⚖️✍️

❤️ To every stenographer: your work may be quiet, but your dedication speaks through every stroke. May this skill continue from one generation to another, and may every sacrifice made in service to the Court and family be remembered and appreciated.

✍️⚖️❤️
