Is there an English dictionary/adaptation for this system? I have a midi keyboard, and I'd like to use it for stenography.

Sillabix commented 5 years ago

I've written a Michela-English theory based on the original Michela-English alphabet created by the inventor. I also started to write down an English Plover dictionary. At the moment it counts just 1000 words but I hope to enlarge it soon.

KoolenDasheppi commented 5 years ago

So is it going to be released sometime soon?

Sillabix commented 5 years ago

Yes, I should put it on my Github repository. It would be useful to have some English speaking people giving it a try and, perhaps, helping me in enlarging the dictionary.

KoolenDasheppi commented 5 years ago

I'd be glad to help! Let me know when you've got it on the repository, and I'll give it a try. I'm a bit new to steno, but I'm a quick learner. Thank you by the way, I've been excited to try steno with my piano.

Sillabix commented 5 years ago

Ok, are you also on the Plover-Discord server?

KoolenDasheppi commented 5 years ago

No, but I'll join it right now. If you have a link, you can post it here, but if not I can look for it.

KoolenDasheppi commented 5 years ago

I found it and am joined. My name's Koolen on there, same profile picture as here. ^w^

Sillabix commented 5 years ago

I found you. I'll send you a PM.

Here is the first part of the Michela MIDI English theory.

The previous link is broken but I found the document. For people less patient than me here is the direct link: https://github.com/Sillabix/Michela-stenotype-keyboard-miscellaneous-files-/raw/master/Phonographic%20and%20phonostenographic%20Michela%20symbols.pdf

Sillabix commented 4 years ago

No, that link is not to the theory but to a document about the original phonographic Michela theory.

The correct link to the English-phonetic theory is this: https://github.com/Sillabix/Michela-phonetic-shorthand-theory-for-English-under-construction

While the link to the English-orthographic theory is this: https://github.com/Sillabix/Midi4Text-ortographic-system
