COMPLETE Manual of Phonography PART II. Containing The Brief Reporting Style Of PHONOGRAPHY PART II. Writing In Position. If the position of the word indicates the vowel, or accented vowel of a word, it can easily be read. Words that contain only one or two consonants are usually written in position, as determined by the accented vowel. (See page 20.) Position need not be observed with respect to most words containing three or more consonants. A word formed by a horizontal and a down-or up-stroke has its position determined by the down-or up-stroke. When a word begins with a horizontal followed by a down-stroke, written in the first position, the horizontal must be written a little higher than usual; and when in the third position, it must be written a little lower, to accommodate itself to the position of the following stroke. Words beginning with a horizontal and followed by an up-stroke, in the third position, the horizontal is written below the line. Derivative words must be written in the same place as their primitives. Double-length perpendicular strokes and straight sloping down-strokes take only the second and third position: on and through the line. A double-length horizontal follows the above rule for position of horizontals.' These rules for position do not apply to words having an outline of their own. A word having a vowel before and after a single consonant, the accented vowel should be inserted. A word beginning or ending with an accented vowel, the initial or final vowel should be inserted, except final y, which is unnecessary to insert. RESUME OF THE LOGOGRAMS.
