Key difference with steno is it’s meant to transcribe speech for hours at a time. They type for normally 30 seconds and are copying. Even those who can hold 225 wpm on a normal keyboard for longer cannot do the same for someone speaking
It also does phrases. I use a lot of little ones, like WOUF for "would have" and TOB for "to be", but even really long ones, like LAYRJ for "ladies and gentleman of the jury."
I'd love to see a video of you writing an essay or something using Steno. I'm a big fan and love it, but haven't seen many real world uses other than in court.
It's perfect for taking notes, especially during lectures. If you're the type that struggles to take well organized notes quickly, it can be helpful to copy down what someone is saying and read through it later to take out information. Aside from that it's mostly just nice for efficiency. Most times where you need to write a lot down quickly, or need to write for long periods of time, it's quite nice.

@@yash1152 Steno boards don't use loud, clicky keys, because they're chorded, and used a lot in live settings, like court rooms and conference talks. You have to press a bunch of keys at once, very rapidly, so they're the more silent, linear type that doesn't click, and the springs tend to be lighter than regular keyboards. Each finger has to press up to 2 keys at once, and the index fingers and right pinky occasionally have to press 4 at once. The pro machines use long levers that are very light to press, so it barely takes more power to press all 23 keys than it does to press just one. Some people even add the little rubber o-rings to the posts under the key caps to dampen the soft sound even more.
One question, Recently, youtube algorithm recommend some stenograph contents. As a person who everyday using keyboard to work (programmer) I found this is fascinating. My question is, is this kind of technic could be apply to programming? I am still researching about that, but not gonna lie, this is really pick my interest
I'm pretty sure there are some steno dicts for programmers online... At least there were back in 2015 or so(I remember seeing it for C, don't know about other languages, but I'm pretty sure you can create your own)
It's a pretty huge learning curve and relatively pointless for coding. Typing speed is pretty much never a limiting factor when you're writing code. Learning how to use chords efficiently takes months, and not even sure how that would apply to programming. Steno is really only useful if you have to write a LOT of text like when you're transcribing something. For programming, it's basically just a novelty for swag. You probably will spend more time learning it and getting used to it than the amount of time it saves you typing in your whole life. Especially when considering the auto complete features that come with pretty much all IDEs

He stopped typing for a few seconds before he started again so that tanked his score, if you look at his other videos he gets like 220, but he doesn’t do it to type fast. Probably his job has smt to do with it.
He owns StenoKeyboards, which makes and sells this keyboard, and several others. I have v3 and v4 of the Uni, and they rock, and I backed the Asterisk (key-less, touch-based) board, which I should get soon. This one is the Polyglot, which is the Uni with an extra row and column, and a devoted switch to toggle between qwerty and steno modes.
This one has a key to toggle to qwerty mode and back You can type in qwerty, or hit that key and start writing in steno. Steno is a chorded input model. Some things may be one key (like K- for "can" and -T for "the" for me), but most things will be chords of several keys.
That's just kid hacker show-off stuff. You don't graduate steno school until you've hit 225, and you have to be able to maintain that comfortably all day every day as your job, without making insane automatic gun qwerty noises, and while also keeping up with capitalization, formatting, proper names, dates, and speaker IDs tagging everyone, which none of these super fast qwerty people can do. Stenographers often go faster than 225, too, and the fastest guy hit 370 in competition.
Yes. Here's an example of very fast Castilian Spanish, by a really good stenographer who isn't a Spanish-speaking native. th-cam.com/video/eGZ43TID9jU/w-d-xo.html
You can do any language you have a steno dictionary for, and if one doesn't exist, you can start building one yourself. There are Spanish ones, but I've been building up my own from scratch, while learning both steno and Spanish. Many people build their English steno dictionaries from scratch, adding to them as they go, and most stenos add things often, as they realize some new jargon is missing, or as they find simpler strokes for common[ish] things.
It works for anything you have a dictionary for. Languages beyond English are hit-or-miss with their support, but, e.g., here's someone writing with this system in Vietnamese: th-cam.com/video/5LLYKb2uwuo/w-d-xo.html
Yes. I've been playing with writing a Spanish dictionary along with learning through Duolingo (and lately a bit of Dreaming Spanish). It's nice, because it does the accents for me, which is a lot harder, character-by-character on qwerty. I stroke the equivalent of the two strokes AUT/BUS, but it outputs "autobús" with the accented u for me. It's actually quite pleasant and surprisingly fast to write in Spanish this way, and French would be no different. You just need a French steno dictionary.
If you heard that in a comment on a steno reel, I'm sorry. There's so much misinformation in them, by people who have no idea what they're talking about. There's no limit to the length of the output of steno definitions. I have TPHAOUPL/SKOPS (steno for NUME/SKOPS) - two strokes - defined to output "pneumonoultramicroscpicsilicovlcanocniosis". I don't know German, but I know I've seen noun clusters joined. If it's a limited set (even if it's huge), then you just add those tons of compound words to your dictionary, just like I have "break", "fast", and "breakfast" in mine. I've seen lists of German words that made it seem to me that after die and der, the following noun is always capitalized. I don't know if that's true, but if so, you can just add that to those strokes, like "TKAOEU": "die {-|}", which tells the system in Plover to capitalize the next word. I have things like this, like "Dr." which capitalizes the next word, because it presumes a name. If I don't want that, I can just hit the space stroke to push forward a space, and suppress the capital. Looking it up, I see that some compound words use various linkers in German, like: Hund (dog) + ''e'' linker + die Leine (line) = die Hundeleine (dog leash). That would just be a definition: "HUPBD/HRAOEUPB": "hundeleine", and then the die stroke would capitalize it, so TKAOEU/HUPBD/HRAOEUPB would output "die Hundeleine". It's a very powerful, expressive system, and I'm certain it could handle German just fine. I read that people invent new compound words, sometimes ones that just a few people use. You can rapidly add definitions through a popup window (my stroke is DUPT - dictionary update), and it takes seconds to add one. You can also just spell things out, like I've done here (I'm writing this on my Uni steno keyboard). If you had to, you could even create a python dictionary, imbue it with a long list of nouns and orthographic understanding, and it could figure out most linkages for you. Plover has a rich English orthography built in, so it knows how to apply affixes, like -d/-ed, including how to modify the base word, so die becomes died (-d), but walk becomes walked (-ed)
There are many theories, and people make their dictionaries their own over time, but I'm using Plover theory, and I like consonant doubling in strokes to match consonant doubling in words, so I'd do IL/HRAOUGS - two strokes. As a breakdown, there's no L on the left, so you use HR-. The long U sound is the AOU keys. -GS is used in my theory for the shun/zhun ending sound, so I'm basically stroking IL/LUSION in two strokes. I could imagine someone having the brief EULGS, though (EU is the missing i vowel), basically ILSION, but that one feels a little awkward to me.
This same account has a Korean example using this system on their Uni board (the one I'm using to write this): th-cam.com/video/MfRnoFWqE-E/w-d-xo.html
@@pilot_6 he’s typing slowly for this video, if you see his other shorts he’s gone to around 250 wpm, and it doesn’t look like he’s working his hands out or getting too tired from typing
Not so great, because it's chord-based, and therefore doesn't send keys when you press them, but only when you finally release the last one. This means you can arpeggiate, i.e. press keys down in sequence, while still holding any of them down, and it will keep recording which ones have gone into the stroke (useful for playing with steno on a non-NKRO board), and when all keys are finally unpressed, it will send all the ones it collected as that stroke. This conflicts quite a bit with regular WASD-style gaming, where you expect pressing a key to immediately send that event. It also means you don't by default have any key repeat, so if you'd have to keep hammering on your W equivalent to keep moving forward. There are ways around this, like firmware hacks for various kinds of key-repeat, and a first-up send concept, but regardless, it's probably less than ideal, and not what most gamers would want. Now typing games, those are another story :)
Steno handles spaces for you, and the Plover software (free/open steno thing he's using in the video, and I'm using to write this comment) let's you define the string used for space, and you can do that with a meta-command in a stroke, so I can turn off spaces by setting it to the empty string, andwritethesamewayIalwaysdoinsteno, and it just works. I can also hit another stroke to turn spaces into periods, and.then.spaces.look.like.this. The fancy text plugin for Plover let's you do a lot more, like I can WrITe In sARcASm ModE, o̢r͆ i̅n͢ z̗a̬l̳g̅oͪ m͋ǫd̻e͜, ⓞⓡ ⓘⓝ ⓑⓤⓑⓑⓛⓔⓢ, 𝓸𝓻 𝓲𝓷 𝓼𝓬𝓻𝓲𝓹𝓽 𝓶𝓸𝓭𝓮, 𝖔𝖗 𝖎𝖓 𝖆 𝖈𝖔𝖔𝖑 𝕸𝖊𝖉𝖎𝖊𝖛𝖆𝖑 𝖜𝖆𝖞, ɐup ǝʌǝu ᴉu ndsᴉpǝ poʍu lǝʇʇǝɹs¡ It's a super cool way of inputting text, much more powerful than qwerty.
It's a late reply, but if you're still interested in this there's a ton of online learning resources you can use to help you out. My favourite ones are 'The art of chording' and the website typeytype
Type that word methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylarginyltyrosylglutamylserylleucylphenylalanylalanylglutaminylleuc these only first characters of the word but the word is 180,000 characters truly
1. No one types that word; they paste it in from somewhere online, and even then, they never paste the whole thing, because of comment limits. 2. That word is forty-two pages of single spaced lines of letters in a PDF I found online. 3. If anyone actually did need to write it out, it would be way easier in steno, because you'd define it in your dictionary (maybe in its own dictionary, because it would be huge all by itself), and make up a single stroke, or maybe a two stroke outline, so then any time you did need to write it, you'd just hit that stroke, and probably wait while your computer finishes sending 180k keys, probably crashing whatever program you're using.
I defined TPHAOUPL/SKOPS as pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, and supercalifragilisticexpialidocious was already in the main dictionary as STPRAPBLG, and with the star key, the inverse: dociousaliexpilisticfragicalirupes.
Stenography, like they've used in courts for a century, in televised closed-captioning since 1971, and in live captioning at events, lectures, etc., for decades.
I have the company's Uni keyboard, and I've been using it for all kinds of things for about two years now. It's really fun and comfy to use, and it does quite a bit more than a regular qwerty board can.
Various ways, and keep in mind that steno adds spaces between the words for you, so you don't have to bother hitting space hundreds of times per paragraph. If you're fingerspelling, writing out each letter one-by-one, which you can do in steno when needed, there are lowercase and capital versions of all the letters. Steno strokes can have control codes in them, too, so, for instance, my stroke for period adds it, but also tells the system that the next word should be capitalized, and spaced, so generally, capitals are just handled for me automatically. My stroke for "Dr." capitalizes the next word for me, too. My speaker-id plugin all-caps the name of the speaker, indents it, with double space above it, follows it with a colon, and capitalizes the next word for me, all in a stroke, so properly formatting out a discussion between a lawyer and a defendant is super fast. I have other strokes for non-spaced, and non-capitalizing periods. There's also a stroke for saying the next word should start with a capital, and retro strokes that can capitalize, un-capitalize, or all-caps the previously output thing. I also have an all-caps stroke that turns on the equivalent of caps lock, so everything I write is then capitalized until I hit the mode reset stroke. Strokes can also just be defined to output capitalized things, like if I stroke the steno equivalent of SCOOB/DOO - two strokes - it writes "Scooby Doo", with the caps. I can also stroke SARM, to turn on the fancy text plugin's sarcasm mode AnD TyPE lIkE THis AutOMatIcAlLy until I hit the mode reset stroke. I just write as I normally would in steno, and it randomly capitalizes letters for me as I go. I probably haven't hit everything here, but you get the idea. It's a very powerfully expressive system.
I would just stroke KODES, which is mapped in my steno dictionary to "codes". You could also do KODE/-S, adding the pluralizing -S key at the end to turn it from "code" into "codes".
Oh, you mean how do people code with steno? I know of a handful people doing it. Here's the current maintainer of Plover (the software driving the translations in this video) 8 years ago doing some javascript. I'm sure he's faster these days. th-cam.com/video/RBBiri3CD6w/w-d-xo.html

There's no limit to the length of the output of steno definitions. I have TPHAOUPL/SKOPS (steno for NUME/SKOPS) - two strokes - defined to output "pneumonoultramicroscpicsilicovlcanocniosis". I don't know German, but I know I've seen noun clusters joined. If it's a limited set (even if it's huge), then you just add those tons of compound words to your dictionary, just like I have "break", "fast", and "breakfast" in mine. I've seen lists of German words that made it seem to me that after die and der, the following noun is always capitalized. I don't know if that's true, but if so, you can just add that to those strokes, like "TKAOEU": "die {-|}", which tells the system in Plover to capitalize the next word. I have things like this, like "Dr." which capitalizes the next word, because it presumes a name. If I don't want that, I can just hit the space stroke to push forward a space, and suppress the capital. Looking it up, I see that some compound words use various linkers in German, like: Hund (dog) + ''e'' linker + die Leine (line) = die Hundeleine (dog leash). That would just be a definition: "HUPBD/HRAOEUPB": "hundeleine", and then the die stroke would capitalize it, so TKAOEU/HUPBD/HRAOEUPB would output "die Hundeleine". It's a very powerful, expressive system, and I'm certain it could handle German just fine. I read that people invent new compound words, sometimes ones that just a few people use. You can rapidly add definitions through a popup window (my stroke is DUPT - dictionary update), and it takes seconds to add one. You can also just spell things out, like I've done here (I'm writing this on my Uni steno keyboard). If you had to, you could even create a python dictionary, imbue it with a long list of nouns and orthographic understanding, and it could figure out most linkages for you. Plover has a rich English orthography built in, so it knows how to apply affixes, like -d/-ed, including how to modify the base word, so die becomes died (-d), but walk becomes walked (-ed)
Good typing
Try typing "Illusion" with it then :)
There are many theories, and people make their dictionaries their own over time, but I'm using Plover theory, and I like consonant doubling in strokes to match consonant doubling in words, so I'd do IL/HRAOUGS - two strokes. As a breakdown, there's no L on the left, so you use HR-. The long U sound is the AOU keys. -GS is used in my theory for the shun/zhun ending sound, so I'm basically stroking IL/LUSION in two strokes. I could imagine someone having the brief EULGS, though (EU is the missing i vowel), basically ILSION, but that one feels a little awkward to me.
what the sigma
Can u compare to Korean fast type keyboard?? Thats Super fast
This same account has a Korean example using this system on their Uni board (the one I'm using to write this): th-cam.com/video/MfRnoFWqE-E/w-d-xo.html
@@gfixler nah that's different one.
I still wonder how is this faster, seems very slow to me, i can type like that with a single hand on a normal keyboard
prove it

How does it do w gaming?
Not so great, because it's chord-based, and therefore doesn't send keys when you press them, but only when you finally release the last one. This means you can arpeggiate, i.e. press keys down in sequence, while still holding any of them down, and it will keep recording which ones have gone into the stroke (useful for playing with steno on a non-NKRO board), and when all keys are finally unpressed, it will send all the ones it collected as that stroke. This conflicts quite a bit with regular WASD-style gaming, where you expect pressing a key to immediately send that event. It also means you don't by default have any key repeat, so if you'd have to keep hammering on your W equivalent to keep moving forward. There are ways around this, like firmware hacks for various kinds of key-repeat, and a first-up send concept, but regardless, it's probably less than ideal, and not what most gamers would want. Now typing games, those are another story :)

Steno handles spaces for you, and the Plover software (free/open steno thing he's using in the video, and I'm using to write this comment) let's you define the string used for space, and you can do that with a meta-command in a stroke, so I can turn off spaces by setting it to the empty string, andwritethesamewayIalwaysdoinsteno, and it just works. I can also hit another stroke to turn spaces into periods, and.then.spaces.look.like.this. The fancy text plugin for Plover let's you do a lot more, like I can WrITe In sARcASm ModE, o̢r͆ i̅n͢ z̗a̬l̳g̅oͪ m͋ǫd̻e͜, ⓞⓡ ⓘⓝ ⓑⓤⓑⓑⓛⓔⓢ, 𝓸𝓻 𝓲𝓷 𝓼𝓬𝓻𝓲𝓹𝓽 𝓶𝓸𝓭𝓮, 𝖔𝖗 𝖎𝖓 𝖆 𝖈𝖔𝖔𝖑 𝕸𝖊𝖉𝖎𝖊𝖛𝖆𝖑 𝖜𝖆𝖞, ɐup ǝʌǝu ᴉu ndsᴉpǝ poʍu lǝʇʇǝɹs¡ It's a super cool way of inputting text, much more powerful than qwerty.

It's a late reply, but if you're still interested in this there's a ton of online learning resources you can use to help you out. My favourite ones are 'The art of chording' and the website typeytype
Autocomplete?
Type that word methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylarginyltyrosylglutamylserylleucylphenylalanylalanylglutaminylleuc these only first characters of the word but the word is 180,000 characters truly
1. No one types that word; they paste it in from somewhere online, and even then, they never paste the whole thing, because of comment limits.
2. That word is forty-two pages of single spaced lines of letters in a PDF I found online.
3. If anyone actually did need to write it out, it would be way easier in steno, because you'd define it in your dictionary (maybe in its own dictionary, because it would be huge all by itself), and make up a single stroke, or maybe a two stroke outline, so then any time you did need to write it, you'd just hit that stroke, and probably wait while your computer finishes sending 180k keys, probably crashing whatever program you're using.
I defined TPHAOUPL/SKOPS as pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, and supercalifragilisticexpialidocious was already in the main dictionary as STPRAPBLG, and with the star key, the inverse: dociousaliexpilisticfragicalirupes.
Dude is stenographing wtf
Did someone just moan in the background?
What is this ?
Stenography, like they've used in courts for a century, in televised closed-captioning since 1971, and in live captioning at events, lectures, etc., for decades.
any other use besides this website?
I have the company's Uni keyboard, and I've been using it for all kinds of things for about two years now. It's really fun and comfy to use, and it does quite a bit more than a regular qwerty board can.
I always wonder how they do that stuff
Epic
So expensive keyboard 😮😮😮
Please play nitro type 🙏🙏

How do you do caps
Various ways, and keep in mind that steno adds spaces between the words for you, so you don't have to bother hitting space hundreds of times per paragraph. If you're fingerspelling, writing out each letter one-by-one, which you can do in steno when needed, there are lowercase and capital versions of all the letters. Steno strokes can have control codes in them, too, so, for instance, my stroke for period adds it, but also tells the system that the next word should be capitalized, and spaced, so generally, capitals are just handled for me automatically. My stroke for "Dr." capitalizes the next word for me, too. My speaker-id plugin all-caps the name of the speaker, indents it, with double space above it, follows it with a colon, and capitalizes the next word for me, all in a stroke, so properly formatting out a discussion between a lawyer and a defendant is super fast. I have other strokes for non-spaced, and non-capitalizing periods. There's also a stroke for saying the next word should start with a capital, and retro strokes that can capitalize, un-capitalize, or all-caps the previously output thing. I also have an all-caps stroke that turns on the equivalent of caps lock, so everything I write is then capitalized until I hit the mode reset stroke. Strokes can also just be defined to output capitalized things, like if I stroke the steno equivalent of SCOOB/DOO - two strokes - it writes "Scooby Doo", with the caps. I can also stroke SARM, to turn on the fancy text plugin's sarcasm mode AnD TyPE lIkE THis AutOMatIcAlLy until I hit the mode reset stroke. I just write as I normally would in steno, and it randomly capitalizes letters for me as I go. I probably haven't hit everything here, but you get the idea. It's a very powerfully expressive system.
Im not gay
Let's try some coding now
There are a bunch of people on TH-cam and in the Plover Discord coding in steno.
How do you write codes with it
I would just stroke KODES, which is mapped in my steno dictionary to "codes". You could also do KODE/-S, adding the pluralizing -S key at the end to turn it from "code" into "codes".
Oh, you mean how do people code with steno? I know of a handful people doing it. Here's the current maintainer of Plover (the software driving the translations in this video) 8 years ago doing some javascript. I'm sure he's faster these days. th-cam.com/video/RBBiri3CD6w/w-d-xo.html
