Shorthand notation systems evolved to make it easier to take notes, as the short, symbolic representation for sounds and words make it much easier to write down long sentences at high speed. This could be highly useful while taking down lectures and speeches and in other situations.
There were shorthand systems in use before Pitman’s, but his system was much more streamlined and organized so it became highly popular throughout the English speaking world.
The Pitman shorthand system is phonetic and the emphasis is on consonants rather than on the vowels. Vowels are optionally represented by small shapes like dots and dashes besides the main strokes.
The strokes themselves can be slightly varied to convey different sounds and even words. For instance, the thin stroke that looks like an open bracket ‘(‘ represents the sound ‘th’ as in think, or thank, and it can also represent these common words as a whole. The thick ‘(‘ can be used as a notation for the words they, them etc, and it also represents the sound of ‘th’ as it sounds in these words.
