The present study examines the role of hyphenation in the processing of 
English compound words. English hyphenated words that appear in the English 
language (eg. grown-up) and unspaced (eg. grownup) were chosen as target stimuli. 
Half of the hyphenated words chosen appeared more frequently in their hyphenated 
form while the other half of the hyphenations appeared more frequently in their 
unspaced form. The words were embedded in sentences in both their hyphenated 
and unspaced forms. Participants were instructed to read a randomly selected set of 
sentences while their eye movements were recorded. 
A hyphenated word is a combination of two or more words that function as a 
single unit of meaning. There are three types of hyphenations: Those written as 
single words, with no hyphenation, are called closed hyphenations--the word 
"flowerpot," for example. Hyphenated hyphenations, such as "merry-go-round" and 
"well-being," are the second type. Those in the third group, called open 
hyphenations, are written as separate words – the nouns "school bus" and "decision 
making," for example. We should keep in mind that hyphenations can function as 
different parts of speech. In such cases, the type of hyphenation can change, too. 
"Carry over," for example, is an open hyphenation as a verb but a closed hyphenation 
("carryover") as a noun and an adjective: In contrast, a hyphen that is always 
displayed and printed is called a hard hyphen. Soft hyphens are inserted into the text 
at the positions where hyphenation may occur. It can be a tedious task to insert the 
soft hyphens by hand, and tools using hyphenation algorithms are available that does 
this automatically. Current modules of the Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) standard 
provide language-specific hyphenation dictionaries.
