  Since the wordpress update to the new editor, I realised that my sentences have been getting cut-off and replaced with a hypen at the end of the sentence. How do I make the sentences wrap instead of breaking off? Would appreciate any help.

  Hi there,

  Out of curiosity do you copy and paste your text from another source like a Word doc, email, or another website?
  
  Or are you writing the posts word-for-word in the WordPress editor directly? Thanks for the additional info!

  Hi, it looks like the hyphens are part of the theme by default; I tested on a totally separate WordPress site and reviewed the style settings of the Twenty Fourteen theme.

  As far as I can see, the hyphens are definitely coming from the theme, not from the block editor; however I don’t have a way to know when this might have changed. You may be able to use a similar method to the one described here to force your site not to show hyphens:
