INTRODUCTION

Today’s focus is hyphens and dashes.

Hyphens join words to make one new word. Dashes are used as parentheses like commas or brackets to separate clauses.

Hyphenated words:

good-looking / man-eating / mother-in-law / emerald-green

Dashes: Nobody - not even the team leader - saw the victory coming!

Everybody - including children - had to stay inside.
