    Hey there – do you have a premium account, with the custom design feature?

    If so, this bit of CSS will kill the hyphenation site wide. 

    * {
  -moz-hyphens: none;
  word-wrap: normal;
}

    Your theme’s CSS currently has the word-wrap value set to break-word, which is causing the hyphens.

    If it’s really bothering you, you could use the text editor (as opposed to the visual) to add the styles inline to the offending paragraphs – like so:

    <p style="-moz-hyphens: none; word-wrap: normal;">This paragraph won't have any hyphens.</p>

    That would be a bit of a pain though.

    Hope that helps!

    Sorry, I didn’t clarify – if you have the premium account then the first bit of CSS will take care of it easily and quickly.

    Only use the inline styles if you don’t have access to the CSS and the hyphens are driving you completely bonkers.
