-<h3>Preventing hyphenation of a particular word</h3>
-<p/>It&#8217;s quite possible for (<em>any</em>) hyphenation of a particular word
-to seem &#8220;completely wrong&#8221;, so that you want to prevent it being
-hyphenated.
-<p/>If the word occurs in just one place, put it in a box:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\mbox{oddword}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-(Plain TeX users should use <code>\</code><code>hbox</code>, and take care at the start
-of paragraphs.) However, boxing the word is not really advisable
-unless you are sure it only occurs once.
-<p/>If the word occurs commonly, the best choice is to assert a
-non-hyphenation for it:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\hyphenation{oddword}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-This hyphenation exception (with no break points) will be used in
-preference to what TeX&#8217;s hyphenation algorithm may come up with.
-<p/>In a multilingual document, repeat the exception specification for
-each language the word may appear in. So:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\usepackage[french,english]{babel}
-\selectlanguage{english}
-\hyphenation{oddword}
-\selectlanguage{french}
-\hyphenation{oddword}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-(note that <i>babel</i> will select the default language for the
-document &#8212; English, in this case &#8212; at <code>\</code><code>begin{document}</code>.)
-<p/>A particular instance of this requirement is avoiding the hyphenation
-of acronyms; a general rule for those that concoct acronyms seems to
-be to make the capital-letter sequence read as near as is possible
-like a &#8220;real&#8221; word, but hyphenating an acronym often looks silly.
-The TeX flag <code>\</code><code>uchyph</code> is designed for suppressing such
-behaviour:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\uchyph=0
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-will stop hyphenation of upper-case words. (Note that Plain TeX
-syntax is needed here: there&#8217;s no LaTeX alternative for setting
-this value.)
