+### United States Geography Dictionary
+
+Copy the [`geography-united-states.json`](https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/raw/master/dictionaries/geography-united-states.json) file into your dictionary folder and add it to your Plover config to use these briefs:

+### Canadian Geography Dictionary
+
+Copy the [`geography-canada.json`](https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/raw/master/dictionaries/geography-canada.json) file into your dictionary folder and add it to your Plover config to use these briefs:
+
+- `"KPWR*`": "British Columbia" (mnemonic here is "BC" on the left side)
+- `"A*B`": "Alberta" (may conflict with lots of entries that otherwise begin with A*B)
+- `"S*BG`": "Saskatchewan" (this one conflicts with South Carolina; one of them would have to be assigned the double stroke)
+- `"SK*`": "Saskatchewan" (for "SK" more directly; I missed this one the first time around)
+- `"PH*B`": "Manitoba" (for "MB")
+- `"O*PBT`": "Ontario" (for "Ont."; "O*N" is mapped to the "-on" suffix, but "O*NT" is mapped to "on the" which is already "O-NT" without the star)
+- `"A*UPB`": "Ontario" (for "ON" but using the "AU" as a substitute)
+- `"KW*BG`": "Quebec" (for "QC")
+- `"TPH*B`": "New Brunswick" (for "NB")
+- `"TPH*S`": "Nova Scotia" (for "NS")
+- `"P*E`": "Prince Edward Island" (for "PE"; "P*EU" is taken by "pi")
+- `"PAO*E`": "P.E.I." (because enough people pronounce it that way)
+- `"TPH*F`": "Newfoundland" (for "NF")
+- `"TPH-FLD`": "Newfoundland" (for "Nfld.")
+- `"TPH*FL`": "Newfoundland and Labrador" (for "NF"+"L")
+- `"TPH*L`": "Newfoundland and Labrador" (for "NL")

 ## Vim Dictionary
 
 Copy the [`vim.json`](https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/raw/master/dictionaries/vim.json) file into your dictionary folder and add it to your Plover config to use the following briefs. Note, most strokes use `STPR` to indicate vim (`SR` => `V`):

+## Medical and Chemical Dictionaries
+
+- Copy the [`medical-suffixes.json`](https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/raw/master/dictionaries/medical-suffixes.json) file into your dictionary folder and add it to your Plover config to use extra suffixes for medical words.
+- Copy the [`medical-chemical.json`](https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/raw/master/dictionaries/medical-chemical.json) file into your dictionary folder and add it to your Plover config to use briefs for medical and chemical words.

+
+
+## Versioning Briefs Dictionary
+
+These are evolving briefs that need to be updated whenever their details change:
+
+```
+"PHROFR/SR*ERGS": "weekly-v4.0.0.dev8+8.ge062cda6",
+"PHROFR/STKR*ERGS": "4.0.0.20180620",
+```
+
+`"PHROFR/SR*ERGS"` and `"PHROFR/STKR*ERGS"` can be changed every time you update Plover itself or the dictionary.
+
+
+
 ## Common Words Dictionary
 
 This dictionary consists of common words already available in the default Plover dictionary. If you need only the common words for some reason, copy the [`common-words.json`](https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/raw/master/dictionaries/common-words.json) file into your dictionary folder and add it to your Plover config to use the briefs for a thousand or so common English words.
 
 
 
+## Preferences Dictionary
+
+This dictionary [`preferences.json`](https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/raw/master/dictionaries/preferences.json) has some theory preferences. If you prefer all the choices in this dictionary, make sure your Plover config is in the right order so that this dictionary overrides the main dictionary. If you want parts of this dictionary you will need to add the entries to your own dictionary.
+
+```
+"TKPRAT": "desperate",
+"TKPRALT": "desperately",
+"PRO/TPERBL": "professional",
+"PAEUFT/-L": "pastel",
+"PRO/POEFL": "proposal",
+"TPAU/RAEU": "foray",
+"EUPB/ST*EUPBGT": "instinct",

+"PHOPBT/TPHOUS": "monotonous",
+"KHAOUZ": "chews",
+"ABGS": "action",
+"AEBGS": "axe",
+"A*BGS": "axe",
+```
+
+`"HRO*ET/TO": "loath{^ ^}to"` is meant to distinguish between ["loathe" and "loath to"](https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/loath).
+
+Literally every `R*EF/` word starts with rev- whereas `REF/` has a pretty even split between ref- and rev- words. Therefore, this dictionary overrides the default `REF` and `R*EF` entries with these:
+
+```
+"REF": "ref",
+"R*EF": "rev",
+```

+
+## Preferences: TD as -ded Dictionary
+
+This dictionary [`preferences-TD-as-ded.json`](https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/raw/master/dictionaries/preferences-TD-as-ded.json) uses -TD as "-ded"
+
+```
+"AEUTD": "aided",

+## Preferences: Briefs folding in "of"
+
+This dictionary [`preferences-briefs-folding-of.json`](https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/raw/master/dictionaries/preferences-briefs-folding-of.json) uses briefs that fold in "F" for the word "of".
+
+```
+"TPAUFL": "fall of",
+"TPAUFLT": "fall of the",
+"RAOEUFT": "right of",
+"RAOEUFTS": "rights of",
+"SPAOEF": "speak of",
+"SPAO*EF": "perceive",
+"SPAOEFG": "speaking of",
+"SPAO*EFG": "perceiving",
+```
+
+Note:
+
+- "SPAOEF": "speak of", (this used to be "perceive", so)
+- "SPAO*EF": "perceive", (fix that with an asterisk)
+- "SPAOEFG": "speaking of", (this used to be "perceiving", so)
+- "SPAO*EFG": "perceiving", (fix that with an asterisk)

 If you notice a misstroke, please mention it. This will help future stenographers learning from Typey Type for Stenographers have a better experience learning stenography. The easiest way to help is to [create a new issue](https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/issues/new) for each misstroke or set of misstrokes you find.
