I saw some videos and still can’t understand, a lady just type like 5 buttons ans a whole phrase comes out on the screen. Also doesnt make sense at all what I see from the stenographer screen, it is like random letters no in the same line.
EDIT: Im impressed by how complex and interesting stenography is! Thank you for the replies and also thank you very much for the Awards! 🙂

Stenographer checking in. A lot of people have answered already, but I’ll chime in that I’ve gotten to a point where it’s mainly muscle memory. I can zone out during work and still hear and take everything down (as long as it’s a regular job and not a room of 6 attorneys arguing at once). The key combinations make everything efficient. There are things called briefs which are just combinations of letters that can translate to full phrases. Like LAIJ is “ladies and gentlemen”. Everything is written to be as fast as possible.
