Hyphenate It

from Talk Paper Scissors · host Diana Varma

We’re so dashing excited about this episode! Diana finds herself talking about one of the simplest punctuation marks - the humble hyphen. There are no fewer than seven (seven!) different hyphen-like characters commonly used, including four different dashes, a mathematical minus sign, a catch-all stand-in called a hyphen-minus (a hyphenated hyphen!) and finally… the hyphen. Plot twists and turns take listeners on a roller coaster ride in Punctuation Park… and Diana tells a really bad joke about hyphens… and Kelly Kapoor is quoted. It’s pretty magical. Let's Connect on the web or via Instagram. :)
