The characters for "believe," " many," "from," 66 on the part of," "Mr.," "error," "ourselves," and " 'yourself," are written upward. The character for "almost " may be joined to 1 for "almost all," and to the character for "always " for "almost always." The character for "intend" is to be used as a prefix (joined) for inten, inter, intro, intr, or entr. The character for "scribe " is to be used (joined or disjoined, as convenient) for scribe or "scription."

GENERAL RULES OF CONTRACTION.

The writing of any character under another character implies that the letter t, coming between them, has been omitted. The outline for a word will often serve also for a longer derivative. Thus, the form for " detain " (n under d) also means "detention "; the form for "maintain " (n under m) also means "mainten ance," This rule may be widely practised, with great advantage. The termination tion may frequently be omitted.
