  In WordPress, is the useCSS3hyphenation property turned on in WordPress by default? Makes for faster computation of hyphenation.

  See here: https://github.com/mnater/Hyphenator/blob/wiki/en_PublicAPI.md#property-usecss3hyphenation

  Hi there,

  useCSS3hyphenation is not a CSS property. It’s a specific property of that Hyphenator.js script in GitHub, so a site would have to be using that script in order to enable that particular property. We are not using that on WordPress.com

  That script also hasn’t been updated in over two years, so it’s likely very outdated by now and it’s unlikely we’ll add support for it. Such support will need to be added to WordPress Core before it can be added here as well.
