            If we compare the nearest conventional shorts and
            longs in English, as in "bit" and "beat," "not" and
            "naught," we find that the short vowels are
            generally wide, the long narrow, besides being
            generally diphthongic as well. Hence, originally
            short vowels can be lengthened and yet kept quite
            distinct from the original longs.     --H. Sweet.
      [1913 Webster]

   In short, in few words; in brief; briefly.
