293. By writing the phrase we know, for the sake of distinction, below the line, we avoid the necessity which otherwise might often arise, of distinguishing it by vocalization from when in the first position or one in the second position.

we know (third position)

we know best

we know enough

we know he must

we know his name

we know it is

we know not

we know nothing

we know one thing

we know so many

we know that he is

we know that you are

we know that you can

we know that you must

we know that you will

we know the

we know the most

we know them

we know this

we know we have

we know we may

we know we must

"with" expressed by the "w" hook.

294. In the following exercise, with is to be represented by the w hook, and, unless otherwise indicated, should occupy the first position, in accordance with the general rule governing the position of words at the beginning of a phrase:

with another with another person with him (I. D.) with many

with my friends

with my information

with my knowledge

with my leave

with my love (vocalize love)* with my money with my own with my regards with regard (I. D.) with regard (to) my with regard (to) that with regard (to) them with regard (to) this

with regard (to) which with regret (I. D.) with respect with respect (to) his with respect (to) him with respect (to) many with respect (to) one with respect (to) the with respect (to) this with respect (to) which with respect (to) your **with whom (I. D.)

with whom he has been (he upward) with whom we are with whom you are with whom you can with whom you could be with whom you will be with whom you will have

"with Our." 295. In order to obtain a facile phrase-form, our, in the very common and useful phrase with our, is written with the upward r in the third position. Illustrations:

with our

with our sanction

•See Paragraph 96.

**In the Graham system, this phrase is written by joining the ordinary signs for with and why, but in this list, whom is supposed to be written according to Bonn Pitman, with m in the third position.

Exercise

with our

with our affection with our attention with our bes(t) information with our bes(t) regards with our (circum) stances with our (con)dition with our (con)sent with our duty with our decision

with our discharge with our friends with our information with our name with our objections with our position with our reasons with our respect with our sanction with our senses with our visit

"you," "weRe" and "would" following a circle.

296. By turning the circle backward on upright or inclined strokes, or downward on horizontal strokes, the joining of you, were or would is often made easy where otherwise it would be impracticable. Illustrations: does it please you

I trust you will

I suppose you are

such as would

pay as you go

makes you

In these cases the backward or downward turning of the circle does not include an n hook, as the circle so turned usually does at the end of a word.

Exercise

297. In the following phrases the circle preceding you, were or would is to be turned in the manner which best accomplishes a convenient junction:

asks you

because you are

because you may

because you mus(t) be

because you will

begs you

bless you

does it please you

gives you

I suppose you are

I suppose you will

I trus(t) you are

I trus(t) you will

it makes you

pay as you go

such as would

such as would be

such as would make

such as you

such as you will have

suppose you should be

we may trus(t) you
