The Shun Hook (-tion, - sion, etc.) part - 2 (Introduction)
1. When shun follows the circle s or ns, it is expressed by a small hook written on the opposite side to the circle and with the same motion eg. decision, dispensation etc.
2. A third place vowel between the circle and the shun hook is expressed by the vowel sign being written outside the hook e.g position, physician etc.
3. When a second place vowel is to be read between the circle and shun it need not be indicated e.g possession, accession etc.
4. The shun hook may be used medially eg. additional, positional etc.
5. When a diphthong and a vowel occur immediately before shun, the stroke sh and the hook n must be written eg. extenuation, intuition etc.

The Shun Hook (-tion, - sion, etc.) part - 1 (Introduction)
1. The sound shun or zhun is represented by a large hook.
2. The shun hook is written inside curves e.g fashion, motion etc.
3. When added to a straight stroke with an initial attachment (circle, loop or hook) the shun hook is written on the side opposite to the initial attachment in order to preserve the straightness of the stroke e.g sections, oppression etc.
4. The shun hook is made on the side opposite to the last vowel when following a straight stroke without an initial attachment, in order to indicate where the last vowel occurs e.g passion, action etc.
5. Shun hook is made on the right side of t, d, j e.g rotation, gradation, logicians etc.

The long vowels (thick dot and thick dash) can be remembered by repeating the sentence "Pa may we all go too?" i.e word pa giving sound ah, may - a, we - e, all - aw, go - o, too - oo.
The short vowels (light dot and light dash) can be remembered by repeating the sentence "That pen is not much good". i.e word that giving sound a, pen - e, is - i, not - o, much - u, good - oo.

Always practice Pitman Shorthand with pencil and make the thin strokes, light vowel signs LIGHT and thick strokes, dark vowel signs DARK.
