Brachygraphy and tachygraphy are professional symbolic shorthand techniques that are usually superior to longhand when stenographers take dictation in public courts because they allow them to write down speech by pronunciation. This means that even if the stenographer is unfamiliar with medical or law words, he or she can still take accurate abbreviated dictation because the shorthand is based on pronunciation. This is a handy skill not only for stenographers who take dictation in public courts where video and audio recorders are not typically allowed, but also for a secretary or journalist. When you learn how to use these symbolic shorthand techniques, you can transfer the speech into full words when you sit down at a typewriter. Some antique typewriter machines even have shorthand keys listed so that you can type with great speed. This allows you to keep up with a person's speech at the rate at which they speak. If you are unfamiliar with a word, you can simply write down the way it sounds immediately and then consult a dictionary later on so that you can find out exactly how the word is spelled and what it means. If you plan on attending a public court to take dictation, then you will want to make sure that you have all of the materials that you need. Bring a notebook and plenty of sharp pencils with you. You should also consider bringing a dictionary in case you have time to begin transcribing in between presentations so that you can get started on your work.

People who want to hire someone whose has experience taking shorthand notes and then later transcribing them into longhand will often choose to hire a public stenographer because of the skills they will often have in recording conversations quickly and efficiently. Public stenographers are often used by government agencies in order to create a record of public hearings, legal proceedings, and various meetings and conferences so that there is a public record of the converstations. Stenographers may use a variety of different types of shorthand, but will usually be able to translate the notes into longhand documents that are readable by the public.
