"The Only Official Site for Rap Lin Rie /World Speedwords"
Ordinary writing at Shorthand Speed
for all Languages
This, the only World Brief-Script in existence, breaks down all
the present language barriers to free international
correspondence between all countries.
"Another outstanding and attractive feature of Dutton Speedwords [Rap Lin Rie] is the fact that it is the first abbreviated writing invention in history which at once transcribes all languages." ---R. J. G. Dutton
Rap Lin Rie is the nickname I have given to Dutton World Speedwords.
Dutton World Speedwords was intended to be a shorthand system
that could also be used as an international language. And, it turns
out that it is the perfect email shorthand system for the 21st Century.
