PREFACE
f The preparation of the Anniversary Edition of the Gregg Shorthand

Manual was a big undertaking. When it was finished, there remained tasks
almost as great in the revision of "Progressive Exercises," "Gregg Speed
Studies," and the keys to all these books. These done, we were obliged to
revise all of the supplementary books in harmony with the changes that had
been made. It is with a sigh of relief that we put the finishing touches on
this Dictionary, which practically completes the series.
In the revision of all the basic texts, we were not content with chang-
ing the forms for words affected by the changes in the Anniversary Edition,
or with substituting new exercises in accordance with the new arrangement
of the rules and material, because we wanted to give effect to many improve-
ments suggested by our study and experience with the old editions, or which
were suggested by our many teacher friends. All the books incorporate new
ideas, new material, new methods.
Now as to this Dictionary: The new features are fully set forth in the
Introduction-features that I believe will render the book much more valu-
able 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 compil-
ing the lists of words used, and in classifying them in the manner set forth in
the Introduction. Special credit should be given Mrs. Winifred Kenna
Richmond for the artistic manner in which she has written the shorthand
forms.
JOHN ROBERT GREGG.
INTRODUCTION

A dictionary is primarily a reference book. A good dictionary, however,


properly used, should be far more than that. This is particularly true of a
shorthand dictionary, which should be a guide so clear that a beginner can
readily locate the shorthand outline for any given word, but which at the
same time should possess all the resources needed to satisfy th.e most advanced
writer, 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 classifica-
tion of the shorthand forms and consistency in the use of abbreviating devices.
In the present dictionary, we have endeavored to do these things. In this
brief Introduction we shall state some of the principles followed in obtaining
consistency of outline. These rules cover the treatment of some frequent
sound combinations, and a thorough acquaintance with them will often make
it unnecessary to refer to thtt word list itself for an outline.
One of the most fascinating featu res of Gregg Shorthand is the manner
in which the principle of analogy is applied. Nothingis more helpful to the
shorthand 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 therefore
know 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 memor-
ized, but is to be studied intelligently in order that you may see the underly-
ing principles governing the formation of the outlines. Nothing is arbitrary
-there is always a reason why, even though at first sight it may not be
apparent.
iv
GREGG SHORTHAND DICTIONARY v
First, we should explain that the following have been eliminated as being
unnecessary :
1. Short, simple words that any student who is still working on the early
part of the Manual can easily write, such words as cat,dog, etc.
2. Purely "dictionary words." Every word in the list of nearly 19,000
is 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 in
your shorthand dictionary.
3. Certain derivatives that are formed in accordance with the rules given
in the textbook, such as the numerous derivatives of the suffix u/ate, and some
others. In order to save space and make room. for more root words, a com-
plete table of these suffix derivatives is given in this Introduction. In case
there should be doubt as to the correct writing of one of the derivatives, ref-
erence to this table will make the matter clear.
The Gregg Shorthand Dictionary contains the following indiospensable
features:
1. A list of the 19,000 most frequently used words in the English lan-
guage. The words for which the shorthand forms are immediately obvious
have been omitted.
2. Many past tenses, plurals, and other derivative forms that were not
included in previous editions of the shorthand dictionary.
3. Derivatives in every case grouped under the root word in easily acces-
sible form. Since the root words in type project slightly beyond the margin
of the type column. the finding of any word is greatly facilitated-it is neces-
sary only to look down the comparatively small list of root words that stand
out at the left of each column.
4. Direct derivatives. and in some cases closely allied words. are listed
under their root words. This has been done in order to emphasize the value of
the analogical building of outlines, and also in the belief that the practice of
a group of related outlines is more valuable than the practice of the isolated
outlines.
FOUR FREQUENTLY USED DERIVATIVES
The 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 rules
given in the Manual for the formation of the past tense.
vi GREGG SHORTHAND DICTIONARY
1. After abbreviated words, a disjoined t is placed close to the preceding
character 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 in
full when the joining of the t or d would not give a distinctive or
facile 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 in
the 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 para-
graph 136 in the Manual is used, as in killed.
d. After suffixes that give a facile and legible joining, as in
mentioned. stipulated.
e. After many brief forms containing the last character of the
word. as in asked. charged. worked.
PLURALS. The formation of plurals is clearly explained in paragraphs
55, 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. impos-
sible, 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, in
which case it is not necessary to insert the vowel in the negative prefix, as in
inexpensive. unorganized.
Negative words beginning with un or im in which the n or m is doubled
are distinguished from the positive forms by omitting one of the doubled
consonants and inserting the initial vowel, as in unknown. immodest.
COMPARATIVE AND SUPERLATIVE FORMS. The comparative form of an ad-
jective is usually written by simply joining an r to the primitive form, as in
GREGG SHORTHAND DICTIONARY vii
Quicker. slower. If. however, the adjective is written in full and ends ina
straight line, the reversing principle is used for the comparative form, as in
larger, later; when a brief form ends with the last consonant of a word, the
reversed circle is used to make the comparative form after straight lines, as in
sooner. stranger; after brief forms. abbreviated words, and words ending in a
reversed circle. a disjoined r is used. as in worker, purer, nearer, unless
the 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 consonant
when the word is written ;in full, as in cheapest, broadest. This rule also
applies to brief forms or contractions when the final consonant of the short-
hand form is also the final consonant of the word, as in soonest, strangest.
The termination est is usually expressed by a disjoined st after brief
forms, 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 the
adjective are written in shorthand by adding the small circle, signifying ly,
to the primitive form of the adjective. The only exceptions to this rule are
friendly, immediately, thoroughly, respectfully.

THE ENDING TION


So many words end with the suffix tion, in its various spellings, that in
forming derivatives a shorthand outline is considered to end with the final
letter of a word if the word ends with the suffix tion. By so doing, that great
class of words may be written in accordance with such rules as those in par-
agraphs 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 for
such forms as auctioneer, stationer, executioner, and the joined d for forms
like mentioned, commissioned, old fashioned.
Other examples showing the manner in which the outlines ending in
tion, sion, cien may be regarded as written in full are such classes of words as
professional, national. provisional, sensational, rational; efficient, deficient,
proficient; efficiency, deficiency, proficiency.
Vlll GREGG SHORTHAND DICTIONARY

THE ENDING ATE


T is omitted in the terminations rate, late, tate. The t is written in the
terminations fate, vate, mate, nate. The at is omitted in the terminations cate,.
gate. The following brief list of examples will make this clear:
-rate accurate, commemorate, confederate, decorate, liberate, narrate,·
obdurate, operate, penetrate, perpetrate, venerate, vibrate. (In a
few words the abbreviating principle is applied: cooperate, elab-
orate, inaugurate, recuperate, refrigerate, separate. To form deriva-
tives add s for -rates, a disjoined v for -rative, a disjoined r for
-rator.)
-late annihilate, desolate, dilate, disconsolate, inflate, isolate, mutilate,
oscillate, scintillate, translate, violate, ventilate.
-tate agitate, annotate, devastate, dictate, facilitate, felicitate, gravitate,

limate, ultimate, primate.
-nate alienate, alternate, assassinate, coordinate, dominate, eliminate, fas-
cinate, illuminate, incriminate, indeterminate, inordinate, nomi-

enunciate.)
-cate abdicate, adjudicate, complicate, confiscate, delicate, deprecate, erad-
icate, fabricate, implicate, indicate, ,intricate, locate, allocate, dis-
locate, lubricate, medicate, suffocate, syndicate, vindicate. (Write
ksh for -cation in words so abbreviated. There are special abbre-
viations for certificate, duplicate, communicate, prevaricate, recip-
rocate, educate. We write in full for the sake of greater legibility
the words vacate, desiccate, dedicate, predicate, extricate, advocate.)
-gate abrogate, aggregate, castigate, congregate, conjugate, corrugate,
instigate, interrogate, investigate, irrigate, litigate, mitigate, navi-
gate, obligate, propagate, relegate, segregate, subjugate, surrogate,
variegate. (Write gsh for -gation in words so abbreviated. The
abbreviating principle is applied to delegate, promulgate. We
write in full legate, frigate.)
GREGG SHORTHAND DICTIONARY IX

MODIFICATION OF WORD FORMS


In forming compound words, it is often necessary to change somewhat
the form of one of the words. Examples of this are: cobweb, featherweight,
flywheel, footwear, neckwear, hoodwink, horsewhip, lukewarm, milkweed.
, whirlwind.
FREQUENTLY RECURRING SYLLABLES
The principle of analogy is of the greatest value to the writer of a system
in which it may be used to its fullest extent, as is the case with Gregg Short-
hand. We shall point out q,ere some of the useful analogical forms that are not
given as such in the Manual; many of them fall under the abbreviating prin-
ciple. In order to conserve space, the shorthand forms are not given, as they
may easily be ascertained from the word list of this dictionary. Knowing the
outline for anyone of the words. and knowing that all similar combinations
are written analogically, it will be a simple matter to construct the outlines for
yourself. The lists are given for convenience in practice and so that you
may study the application of the principle:
-ish abolish, banish, blemish, brutish, burnish, cherish, childish, fam-
ish, finish, flourish, foolish, furnish, girlish, nourish, perish, polish,
punish, relish, Spanish, stylish, tarnish; vanish, varnish.
-let booklet, bracelet, circlet, coverlet, eyelet, gauntlet, gimlet, goblet,
inlet, outlet, ringlet, streamlet, tablet, violet. (The ending ette is
written in full, as in palette, roulette, silhouette.)
-CIOUS (All but a few words with this ending may be written under the
abbreviating principle without the us.) audacious, atrocious, ava-
ricious, capacious, delicious, efficacious, facetious, fallacious, fero-
cious, fictitious, loquacious, malicious, meretricious, ostentatious,
pernicious, precocious, propitious, sagacious, spacious, supersti-
tious, tenacious, veracious, vivacious, voracious. (In some words
having the cious ending, it is advisable to add the us in order to
secure a more legible outline. This is usually true of words hav-
ing a similar form in tion, as in captious, cautious, infectious, sus-
picious, vexatious, vicious.) .
-fuse confuse, diffuse, infuse, profuse, refuse, transfuse.
-nction compunction, conjunction, disjunction, function, injunction, junc-
tion, sanction.

-Ive arrive, deprive, derive, revive, survive.
x GREGG SHORTHAND DICTIONARY
-meter barometer, chronometer, speedometer, thermometer, diameter.
-pel compel, dispel, expel, impel, propel, repel, spell. (The past tense
of all the words ending in pel is formed by raising the end of
the I to show the addition of d. Most of them form a derivative in
pulsion, which is indicated by the addition of tion to the primitive
forin.)
-'valve devolve, evolve, involve, revolve. (ef. absolve, dissolve, resolve.)
-tain attain, ascertain, captain, certain, contain,. detain, entertain, foun-
tain, maintain, mountain, obtain, pertain, sustain.

from such derivatives of angle as rectangle, triangle, quadrangle,.)
-ular angular, cellular, jugular, muscular, nebular, ocular, oracular, sec-
ular, tabular, titular, tubular, vehicular. (We may take advantage of
the abbreviating principle, however, in binocular, molecular, spec-
