Hello,
When using IPA, I am aware that <.> (full stop) represents a syllable break.
However, I have also read that a <-> can also be used? Is this correct? If so, is it simply a matter of personal preference, or is one considered better or more appropriate than the other? Also, what kind of hyphen is it (is it an em dash, regular hypen, etc?)
Thanks for your help!
