俺的心得

Hyphen

-

直接击打键盘上紧挨着等号的那个小小短横

To break single words into parts, or to join ordinarily separate words into single words. Spaces should not be placed between a hyphen and either of the words it connects except when using a suspended or "hanging" hyphen (e.g. nineteenth- and twentieth-century writers).

(1)    这是英文中最小号的小横线

(2)    把一个单词分成两部分，如行末断字，分音节等

(3)    因为是连接一个单词的两部分，所以即使放在两个独立词之间，这两个词严格意义上实际上变成了一个词，如three-year-old girl

En dash

（1）–

当numLock灯开启，alt0150

(2)ctrl 加numeric hyphen

–

（3）

两个单词之间打两个hyphen， hyphen与字之间有空格, 然后word 自动校准成en dash A –

B

commonly used to indicate a closed range of values, meaning a range with clearly defined and non-infinite upper and lower boundaries. This may include ranges such as those between dates, times, or numbers. 例如：

•      June–July 1967

•      1:00–2:00 p.m.

•      For ages 3–5

•      pp. 38–55

•      President Jimmy Carter (1977–1981)

The en dash can also be used to contrast values, or illustrate a relationship between two things。例如：

•      Mother–daughter relationship

(1)    这是英文中的中号的小横线

(2)    当连接两个词时，这两个词多是平行关系，不像hyphen互相之间有一定的修饰关系

(3)    而有时，即使是修饰关系，当连接的两个词的其中一个本身词是复合名词时，要用en dash，试比较:

The post–World War II era (however, a hyphen would be used in post-war era)

Em dash

(1)—

当numLock灯开启，alt0151

(2)

Ctrl加alt 加numeric hyphen

—

(3)两个单词之间打两个hyphen， 但hyphen与字之间没有空格 A—B

demarcates a break of thought or some similar interpolation stronger than the interpolation demarcated by parentheses。 例如：

•      I distinctly heard him say, 'Go away or I'll——'.

•      It was alleged that D—— had been threatened with blackmail

(1)   这是英文中的大号的小横线

(2)   这个符号在中文中好似破折号，好理解，不易混淆

Minus

标准的应该是用数学公式键入，但在正文中应该用哪一个我就不知道了，用word，插入特殊符号选数学负号－ ？

数学负号或者减号

四种符号的比较： - – —－

-2+3=5,

this is －5.

this is ﹣5

this is -5

到底哪个对？可能是印刷社的问题，我们不用考虑了。
