Dash (–)
Dashes  are  interesting  and  rare  punctuation  marks  in  English  grammar.  The
difference between a dash and hyphen is in the “length.” A dash is typically
longer  than  hyphen.  And  another  outstanding  difference  is  that,  while  a
hyphen  helps  separate  compound  words,  a  dash  is  mostly  used  to
complement an already existing sentence with another related sentence.
For  example, 
using  a  dash  for  open  compound  words
,  you  can  have,  “a
primary school 
– 
secondary debate competition.”
You  can  use  a  dash  to  state  the  time  frame  of  an  event,  e.g.,  “The  historic
incident occurred during the years 1990 
– 
2030.”
Also, use a dash to elaborate more on your sentence only in a conversational
style of writing, e.g., “The Ruger 57 pistol has the fantastic features of the 5.7
round such as flat shooting and soft clicking 
– 
enabling you to shoot multiple
rounds at targeted positions.”
