Special thanks to Scott Pierce for funding this lesson.
Since there is no C key on the layout, we substitute K
and use KH
for initial CH.
{% stenodisplay labels="all" %} KH {% endstenodisplay %}
KHAT
: chatKHOP
: chopKHART
: chart
Words ending with the "tch" or "ch" sound are made on the right hand with -FP
. It's also used if there is a homophone where the only differentiator is spelling.
{% stenodisplay labels="all" %} -FP {% endstenodisplay %}
WAFP
: watchSWAFP
: swatchHAFP
: hatchPWAFP
: batchKAFP
: catchHRAFP
: latchTEFP
: tech (spelling). You can also useTEBG
(phonetic)
You've already learned initial TH in previous lessons as it's just TH
.
{% stenodisplay labels="all" %} TH {% endstenodisplay %}
THAUT
: thought
The first use of the asterisk for us is with final "th". Adding an asterisk to a chord with a -T
in it will make a "th" sound. *T
is the "th" sound.
{% stenodisplay labels="all" %} *T {% endstenodisplay %}
