You will never ever be a pain. It is always good to hear from you. Thank you for your questions. Indeed, TR and WR can we joined to represent the phrase “there were”. The word “there” can also be written using the three strokes “THR”. (In early textbooks the guideline said that the 3 strokes should be written when “there” begins a sentence or a grouping (such as “there were”) and the long T should be used when “there” follows another word or words, for example “is there”, “if there is”, but nowadays it tends to be the writer’s choice). Personally I think the three strokes saves space (the more outlines on a line the less times the hand has to travel from one line to the next and the page is turned less, but at the same time I love the swish of the long “T” so often I vary it, depending on how I feel and where I am on the line. (There may not be room at the end of a line for a long T but THR may squeeze in nicely). Regarding “inner” I used the NW blend so the outline looks the same as the phrase “in our” but you are correct in that it could also be written with the “I-N-R”. It’s great that Teeline has flexibility, unlike Pitman shorthand where only one version is correct. 🥰
@@letsloveteelinetogether2273 It's the swish that gets me going too! Especially when combined with a swosh! Thanks so much for your answers. I am pushing on and enjoying every hour spent on this. And I have started to use it all the time. Shopping lists, notes etc. and I have started taking down the news ribbon on TV for practice. I find it keeps my wits sharp. It really is great stuff!
This is a great practice - thank you!! (Missed you 😉 but glad to see you again)
Thank you.
Is the difference (outline vs. dictation) “does not” versus “did not?”
Yes, that is correct.
Me again. Can you join TR and WR to make "There were"? And..I don't understand the outline for "inner." Should it not be INR? Sorry to be a pain.
