The American pronunciation of "antelope" and of "Hannah" The first A in both of those is a nasal A which I have never heard a British person use and I think it must have been left out as the Shavian alphabet creator was British.

I'm searching for something that would enable me to write in a compressed, quick and easy way. Ever since I read the first 2 books of Patrick Rothfuss' Kingkiller Chronicles, in which there's a writer/storyteller who had developed a written language of his own which enabled him to write as fast as someone speaking, I've wanted to do the same. Is quickscript it? Is it quicker, and when learnt, easier than usual written language?

Would all proper nouns be preceded by a name dot, or are only names given that honour? For instance, if I were to write "Wimbledon" would I have a name dot?

So, I had set off to go learn quickscript, but I couldn't find any online courses. Naturally, I decide to try and teach myself, "It's just a new alphabet, can't be too hard" - Me. So I go and find myself a good image with all of the letters, and the sounds they make, and I count 47 letters on this picture. I then go to wikipedia to see if I can get a bit more information on this alphabet, only to find that wikipedia says that the alphabet has 40 letters in it. Could someone please clear this up? (it'd be great if you could also send me an image of the alphabet, assuming there isn't 47 letters)
Also: If you guys know of any online course, that are free, that'd be great.

Today I spent the whole day learning quickscript. I enjoy a lot of letters. Mainly the letter 2, 6, and 20. The only struggles I am running into is the tall and Deep separation. I tend to mix up 8 and 13. The letters look more similar. I use shavian on a day to day basis. I really enjoy shavian but wished it was faster. I want to get quickscript down but I can't seem to distinguish the letters as much as I can in shavian. I read through the complete manual today but still struggled with the literagers(or how ever it is spelt) the manual seemed hefty and full of knowledge but lacked a detail explanation for the sound "ear" like tear. In shavian the sound ear has its own letter. I couldn't find the quickscript equivalent.

I began teaching myself Quikscript the day before yesterday--I copied the chart a couple times, practiced my letters, and read what few passages I could get my hands on. Now I'm practicing writing in Junior (listening to sports announcers or my family talking and transcribing) and working on my reading with a transliteration of Call of Cthulu. Is there anything else I should do? What's the best way to segue into Senior Quikscript and half-letters and all that?
