Lieber's Standard Telegraphic Code

Beschreibung

A collection of codeworks for use in telegrams, compiled by Benjamin Franklin Lieber. 'Lieber's Standard Telegraphic Code' is a simplified and condensed list of codewords used for telegrams. Lists of codeworks were often compiled from the 1870s to the 1950s as telegrams charged per word. The codewords were created to be able to send longer messages for a lower cost. Some of the codewords included in this work are 'Adeschiamo', meaning 'is it a good time to buy', 'Assipondio', meaning 'according to our view of the matter', 'Atrafago', meaning 'one month', 'Brassement', meaning 'endeavor to settle it in a friendly manner', and more. Written by Benjamin Franklin Lieber, Lieber also wrote 'Analytical Index of Lieber's Latest Code', 'Mutilation Detector for Lieber's Latest Code', and 'Lieber's Bankers' & Stockbrokers' Code and Merchants' & Shippers' Blank Tables'.
