Die Hyphen Die!

Hey smallpressers — throught you would find the following post (from my personal blog) of interest — if not, move along, nothing to see here!

Of primary interest to me, as of late, is the use of the hyphen-particularly as it relates to foreign words (especially Japanese)-as we work through Yoko Danno's translation of the Kojiki. I prefer to use them only where it is established convention to do so or where omission would result in ambiguity or confusion. My mantra: when in doubt, leave it out!

Anyway, check out the rest of the post here.
