Question

In which sentence does the hyphen correctly divide a word?

Answer 1

Simple, once again you can only break at the syllables.

Destroy is de-stroy

Thus, B and C, don't work

B, breaks at des-troy, and it doesn't work.

C, breaks at dest-roy, and also doesn't work.

Thus, A, is your answer.

Hurricanes and severe storms can de-stroy people's property.
