Download or read book Wick s Punctuation Rules for Court Reporters written by Kenneth a Wick and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-08-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The grading guidelines for the National Court Reporters Association state: "The RSR, RPR and RMR skills tests are developed based on the rules of punctuation set forth in The Gregg Reference Manual and Merriam Webster's Dictionary." A Facebook poll showed 86 percent of court reporters use either Morson's English Guide for Court Reporters (Morson) or Court Reporting: Bad Grammar / Good Punctuation (Wells). Only 9 percent of court reporters use The Gregg Reference Manual (Gregg). The low Gregg usage is probably the result of its focus: English composition. Morson and Wells focus on punctuating court reporting transcripts. Unfortunately, Gregg, Morson, and Wells have not been updated in more than 10 years. Morson was last published in 1997, Gregg in 2011, and Wells in 2011. The punctuation and style rules in Wick's Punctuation Rules for Court Reporters are based on the most recent style guides: The Gregg Reference Manual (11th Edition, 2011) The Chicago Manual of Style (17th Edition, 2017) The Redbook: A Manual on Legal Style (4th Edition, 2018) The Associated Press Stylebook (56th Edition, 2022-2024) Merriam-Webster.com Dictionary for spelling.

Download or read book The Essential 99 Punctuation Rules for Court Reporters Student Edition written by Kenneth a. Wick and published by . This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Inexpensive Solution: Unfortunately, many court reporting students cannot afford Morson's English Guide (LMEG), Bad Grammar / Good Punctuation (BGGP), or The Gregg Reference Manual (GRM). The 99 Punctuation Rules is meant as an inexpensive solution until the court reporting student can purchase one or more of these references. 80/20 Principle: The 80/20 principle states that about 80 percent of the results come from 20 percent of the causes. Therefore, roughly 80 percent of punctuation usage comes from 20 percent of the punctuation rules. The 99 Punctuation Rules focuses on the 20 percent or the most commonly used punctuation rules. Grammar: There is an initial focus on understanding grammar. You don't need to be a grammarian, but you can't punctuate well without knowing the basics of grammar and sentence structure. References: The rules in the 99 Punctuation Rules are not my rules. They are the rules in the most current edition of LMEG, BGGP, and GRM. Other references were consulted when the LMEG, BGGP, and/or GRM did not agree. Differences in the references are highlighted.

Download or read book The Essential 99 Punctuation Rules for Court Reporters Workbook written by Kenneth a. Wick and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-01-20 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This workbook contains punctuation practice exercises for The Essential 99 Punctuation Rules For Court Reporters (Student Edition, Reference Edition, or video series). It is probably not possible for a student to master punctuation by simply reading a textbook. Practice is necessary. The student's goal should be to learn the punctuation rules in the textbook and then to practice the rules in the workbook. This way the rules become ingrained. These exercises were developed and arranged to follow the progression of The Essential 99 Punctuation Rules For Court Reporters. There are 375 exercises that are punctuation specific (comma, semicolon, colon, etc.) and focus on one or more of the textbook rules. There are 125 "general" exercises that randomly cover all the textbook punctuation rules.
