-<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label nohyph</title>
-</head><body>
-<h3>My words aren&#8217;t being hyphenated</h3>
-<p/>Let&#8217;s assume you&#8217;ve selected the right TeX &#8216;language&#8217; &#8212; as
-explained in <a href="FAQ-hyphen.html">&#8220;how hyphenation works&#8221;</a>,
-you&#8217;re not likely to get the correct results typesetting one language
-using the hyphenation rules of another. (Select the proper language,
-using <i>babel</i> if you&#8217;re a LaTeX user. This may reveal that
-you need another set of hyphenation patterns; see
-
-<a href="FAQ-newlang.html">&#8220;using a new language&#8221;</a> for advice on how
-to install it.)
-<p/>So what else can go wrong?
-<ul>
-<li> Since TeX version 3.0, the limits on how near to either end
- of a word hyphenation may take place have been programmable (see
- <a href="FAQ-weirdhyphen.html">&#8220;weird hyphenation&#8221;</a>), and for some
- reason the values in question may have been corrupted in some macros
- you are using. TeX won&#8217;t hyphenate less than <code>\</code><code>lefthyphenmin</code>
- characters after the start of a word, nor less than
- <code>\</code><code>righthyphenmin</code> before the end of a word; thus it won&#8217;t
- hyphenate a word shorter than the sum of the two minima, at all.
- For example, since the minima are 2 and 3 for English, TeX won&#8217;t
- hyphenate a word shorter than 5 letters long, if it believes the
- word to be English.
-<li> TeX won&#8217;t hyphenate a word that&#8217;s already been hyphenated.
- For example, the (caricature) English surname Smyth-Postlethwaite
- wouldn&#8217;t hyphenate, which could be troublesome. This is correct
- English typesetting style (it may not be correct for other
- languages), but if needs must, you can replace the hyphen in the
- name with a <code>\</code><code>hyph</code> command, defined
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\def\hyph{-\penalty0\hskip0pt\relax}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
- This is <em>not</em> the sort of thing this FAQ would
- ordinarily recommend&#8230; The <i>hyphenat</i> package defines a
- bundle of such commands (for introducing hyphenation points at
- various punctuation characters).
-<li> There may be accents in the word. The causes of and remedies
- for this effect are discussed in
-
- <a href="FAQ-hyphenaccents.html">accents and hyphens</a>.
-<li> The hyphenation may simply not have been spotted; while TeX&#8217;s
- algorithm is good, it&#8217;s not infallible, and it does miss perfectly
- good hyphenations in some languages. When this happens, you need to
- give TeX <em>explicit</em> instructions on how to hyphenate.
-</ul>
-The <code>\</code><code>hyphenation</code> command allows you to give explicit instructions.
-Provided that the word will hyphenate at all (that is, it is not
-prevented from hyphenating by any of the other restrictions above),
-the command will override anything the hyphenation patterns might
-dictate. The command takes one or more hyphenated words as
-argument &#8212; <code>\</code><code>hyphenation{ana-lysis pot-able}</code>; note that
-(as here, for analysis) you can use the command to overrule TeX&#8217;s
-choice of hyphenation (ana-lysis is the British etymological
-hyphenation; some feel the American hyphenation feels
-&#8216;unfortunate&#8217;&#8230;).
