Shorthand reporting (stenography) typical Congressional testimony at 200 words per minute, then at 210 words per minute using a Stenograph-brand Elan Mira A3 writer.

Sorry for the poor sound; concrete floors cause an echo.

  • When you're recording at this speed, does your mind comprehend each word (or, each sound/syllable) or are you hands just working automatically in response to the sounds you're hearing?

  • @alecjahn you stop thinking about the words and your hands move automatically in response to syllables and sounds. At least, that's how my brain works =)

  • No..the asterisk key can be used for various things, i.e. endings th, ly, or however the reporter wants to use it for writing different words. I happen to know that this guy is well-versed in his talent for being a court reporter. I am just a forum lurker, but I am well aware of his finishing reporting school in just two years...not the norm! It took me 3.5 years. You are a credit to our field. But we have to remember ours is foreign to many so why argue what's unknown to most. @dreyna24 typing?

  • @ChiCSR You must have me confused with someone else. I take pride in my skill, but it took much much longer than it took you to get out of school! =) I took a couple years off....
