Briefs - How to Write It!

Below are some briefs for your use. If you have some briefs you would like to share, send them to us by clicking here. 

Since no one has submitted anything, I'll give some more of mine here involving the "did" phrases and we'll talk about numbers in the How to Tips section for those wanting/needing some help with numbers. 

 

did you feel                 STKUFL                   
did you say STKUS
did you see STKUZ
did you do STKUD
did you think STKUPBG
did you recall STKURL
did you want STKUPT
did you tell STKUT

The idea is obvious, using the STK for did to break the conflicts that occur when you use TK.  Many people will say, "But I use STK for dis.  OK, fine.  In testimony I would say these phrases occur much more often than dis words; and you can still write certain dis words, such as STKAOEZ, disease, and not have a conflict.  Think about it and you'll see stroke saving here big time! <G>

If you turn on suffixes in advanced options and enable -G as a suffix, you don't even need the outline defined in your dictionary and it will translate properly.  All you need is the root word defined.  How many other suffixes can you do this with? We will cover this and much more at the Jacksonville seminar in September, 2009.  Make your plans today and get your reservations as soon as we open them up.  We believe they will go quickly this time around.  Also, we should have a new update to dissect at the same time
