Schwas in Steno

[developfdbq]

Hello. I am new to GitHub. I hope I am using it properly. My question is the following: Is the slash "/" used for schwa vowels such a in the words "clever," "knuckle," "friend," "apple," to give a few examples. If the slash is not used in those examples, what steno is used for schwas? How are they typically written and is the slash used for any vowels or am I way off? I am learning through lapwing. TIA

The slashes represent separators between different strokes (KHRE/SRER would mean you press KHRE all at once and release, and then press SRER all at once and release).
Schwas are documented here: https://lapwing.aerick.ca/Chapter-05.html#the-schwa

Sorry for the late reply, but I hope this helps.

Yes, it did help. And I see that the link you included refers to "schwas" as "short vowels." Do you know if that is the standard vocabulary for the term "schwas" in the steno industry; namely, "short vowels"?

Thanks again.
