a) True
b) False

Answer 1

In English, hyphens are used between prefixes and words that are capitalized, unusual, a number, or capable of being misread.

Step-by-step explanation:

In English, we use hyphens between prefixes and words that are capitalized, unusual, a number, or capable of being misread. For example:

• non-American (prefix: non-, capitalized word: American)
• un-British (prefix: un-, capitalized word: British)
• pre-World War II (prefix: pre-, capitalized phrase: World War II)
• mis-interpret (prefix: mis-, word: interpret)
