em dash supremacy—my friend introduced me to this and i haven't looked back since.
alt+0151 on PC, ctrl+alt+minus for word if I remember right. On mobile you go to more symbols, hold down the minus, and slide to the longest one.
Both require numeric keypad though- but using a minus and a space after can work as a substitute
--as well as 2 minus signs (plus Lemmy happens to convert that to an em dash) - but like THAT? treason. absolutely not.You can even join more than 2 independent clauses together as shown above.
On Mac and iPad it's option-shift-hyphen.
Also there's the en-dash (option-hypen on Mac/iPad), which is slightly shorter: –
The en-dash is meant for ranges of numbers, e.g., 1990–2023, although some use it like an em-dash.
Ah yes -- the em-dash. I will +1 this.
i wish it was a standard on keyboards IMO.
Also en-dash for separating two numbers when indicating a range. I have AHK shortcuts for them both :).
on fr-oss, it's shift+altgr+4 or 5, i believe... also don't forget the non-breaking spaces around it when typing french!
