I wonder if they still teach the sighted version? How do people minute
meetings these days? What about court proceedings etc.? Maybe they just
record them?

Alison,
I don't think it is being taught any more. I did learn it myself and do not
regret doing so. Once it is gone that will be it!

I trained as a shorthand typist and throughout my career frequently minuted
meetings because of my background - but I confess that gradually over the
years it became more like speed-writing than shorthand.
Do people still train as braille shorthand typists I wonder?

And if you start listing the shorthand ones then you'll be posting forever
as you think of more, unless you still have the book ...

Hi,
There was a dot 5 series which was dropped quite a while ago. Jesus and
Christ spring to mind as well as God and Lord!

Hello Alison,
Were there such contractions? I began using the UK braille code at first,
but never been taught things like god. You made me curious.

Does anyone remember why they dropped dot 5 g for god, dot 5 c for
Christ

Why are sighted people designing a new braille code at all? They won't
use
it.
