ABSTRACT:
An improved shorthand notation and transcribing method for recording vocalized speech and transcribing such shorthand notation into conventional language text is disclosed. The method utilizes a conventional computer (10) for processing and storing shorthand data, the computer (10) being provided with a conventional keyboard (12) and a suitable output device, such as a printer (14), for printing the transcribed text. The method of the present invention generally comprises translating the vocalized speech into the improved shorthand of the present invention and inputting such shorthand data via the computer keyboard (12). Using software (16) provided to implement the method of the present invention, the shorthand data is then edited thereby creating a Shorthand File (24) stored on magnetic media. The Shorthand File (24) is then submitted to a Translate Program (20) which separates the file (24) into separate shorthand words whereupon the shorthand words are used to locate matched pairs of shorthand and conventional language words stored in one or more libraries thereby translating the shorthand words. Provision is also made for receiving operator input of matched pairs where a matched pair has not been located in one of the libraries. A Build Document Routine (38) then creates a Document File (26) comprising translated text. The Document File (26) is thereupon formatted by a Format Program (22) and output to the printer (14) for printing. Also disclosed is the improved method of the present invention for translating the vocalized speech into the improved shorthand notation of the present method.
