www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BSBg5TzVBc video 3 shows "recall" as "r-e-c-a-l". So it's not Anniversary. Even in the phrase he used "do you recall" it wasn't shortened. he did "ever" as "e-v-r". He did the brief form "have you ever been" as "have" and crossed over that "been". That was HIS version, not what I've learned in any gregg shorthand. But like he said earlier in the video, you can make it to work for YOU. If you use that phrase a lot, then you are welcome to write it your way. He's changed it a few things too. He made the "a" look like the word beginning "agree" but on the line instead of above the line. It might have been a later version that used that, I can't remember (I have an older book but haven't really studied it as I like Anniversary). He does show that how it works with words and it's written like that, but when you write the letter "A" you use a dot. He added some "letters" even though shorthand is more based on sounds instead of letters.

I figure even if he's not teaching the same method that I know, its worth watching his videos. I don't pay attention to how he writes his outlines cause some of them are very different from what I learned in Gregg's Simplified version. I write my version of the words he's saying.
btw debbi, I sent you a PM

That's true. Watching is good. I guess I was a little negative there, it was the day I was having... sorry.
They use to like teachers to write on the blackboard while students watched. So watching some videos of different people writing is a great idea.

Negative? Hmmm...didn't seem negative to me, really. Just looked like you were pointing out the truth. I watched his videos and from what he was saying, I think he knows Pre-anni.
It's kind of hard too trying to make sense out of what he says cause he is all over the place going from one subject to another.

He probably knows all about Gregg Shorthand. But it looks like he's teaching a later version because the outlines are longer then Anniversary, at least.

The two recent posts by Nancysag are not related to Gregg shorthand and do not belong here.
