I prefer the look of "em" or "en"
dashes – or — vs -

The em dash (—) sets off a word


or clause and adds emphasis. Or,
it can signal an interruption (see
our article on interrupting
sentences for more on that!) or
amplification (“expanding”) of an
idea. It’s also the longest of the
dashes (e.g., hyphen, en dash).

On a Mac, the keyboard shortcut


Option + Dash (-) makes an en
dash, and Option + Shift + Dash
www.imarketing.courses
(-) makes an em dash.

On Windows it's...less simple:


you need to use an alt code to
get an em dash. If you have a
numeric keyboard, hold down the
Alt key and type 0151 for an em
dash or 0150 for an en dash.

OR... at the end of writing, use


Command "f" and "replace all".

Norma purchased these for her mother and she notes how the finger
indentations help her mother grip the glasses. “Absolutely love the wave
glasses. They are beautiful and lightweight. Since they are handcrafted,
there are slight variations which add to the beauty and uniqueness of the
pieces.

My mom, who has advanced arthritis, loves the fact she can securely grip
the glass and not have to worry about dropping her favorite glass of rosé.
64 Best bar ware purchase ever.” Norma, RN - Amazon 5 Star Review

Todd is thrilled with every aspect of his new wine glasses. Here is what
he had to share: “I purchased 2 sets of 2 glasses each. They arrived in
really nice and well packed boxes that would be perfect for gifting - keep
that in mind for you wine loving friends and family!

Now that I've had a week to test them out, I no longer even consider
reaching for my stemware. This is now my favorite 'go-to' glass. Fits so well
in the hand. Holds plenty of wine - I had to compare my normal pour to see
where it lined up in this glass so that you can proportion out a bottle among
multiple drinkers. But if you want a 'big' glass there is plenty of room for
extra!

The glasses are of very high quality. An easy 5 star for sure.”
