Re: Re: Re: Re: Question Please
I know the difference between an em dash and hyphen. I just get em dash and en dash mixed up, but thought I'd look it up again, in case anyone cares. *Bigsmile*

From Scribbr:

The en dash is approximately the length of the letter N, and the em dash the length of the letter M. The shorter en dash (ā€“) is used to mark ranges and with the meaning ā€œtoā€ in phrases like ā€œDoverā€“Calais crossing.ā€ The longer em dash (ā€”) is used to separate extra information or mark a break in a sentence.

There you have it, Chrys O'Shea. *Geek* *Delight*
