PLEASE HELP ASAP

What is the purpose of dots between parts of a word in a dictionary?

to show you how to pronounce the word

to show you another way to write the word

to show how many letters in a word

to show the syllables in a word

Answer 1

These dots indicate where the word can be broken if it doesn't fit on a line of text. So I would say the answer is B

Answer 2

to show you another way to write the word

It's basically to show a writer when it's a good spot to break down a word when it can't fit into a line.
