When to add "-" The idea of this thread came to my mind as I saw combination of two words:
royalty free
the correct one was:
royalty-free
Why and when adding the "-"? I do not understand this..

Teacher Re: When to add "-" You hyphenate adjectives when the two words depend on each other for one meaning, and there is a potential for ambiguity without the hyphen.
