<u>Answer: </u>

Question 1: to indicate a pause

Question 2: False

Question 3: man and eating

<u>Explanation:</u>

Question 1:

  • The hyphen is used to link two words together.

For example:

A family-owned restaurant

  • The hyphen is used to separate syllables in a word. For example, televi-

sion.

  •   The hyphen is used in some situations with prefixes. One rule states that you can use a hyphe if it comes before proper nouns or proper adjectives. For example: trans-Atlantic, mid-October

The hyphen is not used to indicate a pause.

Question 2:

It's false.

  • They are not the same symbol. The hyphen is shorter.
  • Hyphens are not separated by spaces, while a dash has a space on either side.
  • Hyphens are mainly used for the reasons stated above, while dashes are  used to mark a pause. They are parenthetical statements.
  • Hyphens are used ot separate parts of words, dashes are used to separate groups of words.  

Question 3:

The correct way of using a hyphen is <em>the man-eating jellyfish</em>.

The rule here is: use a hyphen to join two or more words that come before a noun and act as an adjective. This is called a <em>compound adjective</em>.
