Reply To: Dividing Words Between Lines
Donna,
The divided word academic would not be misread as according if you were to divide it after the ac. The short form word "according" must stand alone, therefore it would not be followed by a hyphen. I am curious as to why are you dividing words to begin with? The certification manuscript no longer requires that words be divided between lines, unless they are hyphenated compound words.
Happy New Year!
