The Dash is a punctuation mark that is similar in appearance to U+002D - HYPHEN-MINUS and U+2212 − MINUS SIGN, but differs from these symbols in both length and height. The most common versions of the dash are the en dash (–), equal to half the height of the font; the em dash (—), twice as long as the en dash; and the horizontal bar (―), whose length varies across typefaces.Historically, the names of en dash and em dash were loosely related to the width of a lower-case n and upper-case M, respectively, in commonly used typefaces. * Usage varies both within English and in other languages, but the usual convention in printed English text is as follows:* An em dash or a spaced en dash can be used to mark a break in a sentence, and a pair can be used to set off parenthetical statements.
