      Why use many words when less do just fine?

      When do hyphenated words count as one word and when do they count as two?

        In page layout they count as two, since they can break across lines

        In crosswords and word searches they can count as one, mostly because small phrases can count as well.

        In prose length they can vary: “nuh-uh” is only 1 word since it’s less than six characters, but “antideluvian-american” is almost four, since it’s 21 characters long.

        I guess they count as one word when you’re playing an improv or collaborative fiction game?

    My search history is mostly “[word] etymology”. Did you know that Eoin and Owen are etymologically unrelated?

      You’re doing better than at least 1/3 of the world. (This comment is not backed by science. Just by a feeling.)
