Ik las een van Wallace’ vroegste verhalen — en herkende hem meteen aan zijn stijl, toon, thematiek én leestekens. In het bijzonder de em-dash (—), dat hij inzet als literaire aarzeling en ritmebepaler. In deze blog leg ik het verschil uit tussen koppelteken, minteken, en de twee soorten gedachtestreepjes.

Reading the #proofs of a #paper during my vacation time.

I'm not sure what is more irritating, being urged to do that within 48 hours when I'm supposed to be off, or seeing that they have inserted Oxford commas everywhere but don't use en-dashes except for ranges. 😄

You can take U+2014 (—) and U+2013 (–) from my cold, dead hands. #emdash #endash #llm

Wait. Em-dashes are a sign of AI-generated text? Good thing that i follow #Bringhurst’s idea – spaced en-dashes.
— Like the oversized space between sentences, (the em-dash) belongs to the padded and corseted aesthetic of Victorian typography

Oh, but the em-dash is »the normal European method of marking dialog«. Eastern European? Not really German, or English.

You know, it may sound silly, but now that I've had it a while, one of my favorite small things about the #Mac is how easy it is to type a #EnDash and an #EmDash, like – and — are just a keyboard shortcut away

I came across an #EmilyDickinson fragment today with the heaviest most meaningful breaking off at the end. It read to me as if there were no more words she could find to add. #poetry #endash
