Dash

Sometimes something is always there. One may never realize its presence but because of one's ignorance it does not mean it does not exist.

Todays discovery of mine was about a simple, harmless and friendly dash. Yes dash (-) is what I am talking about. Never thought this particular dash has a whole set of lineage and variety. Dash with a certain length means something, some other length dash denotes something else altogether. Hyphen, figure dash, em dash, en dash, horizontal bar, swung dash. Confused what am I talking about. My friends these all are form of dash

Was going through this post which is a degree above my discovery. My discovery is even more basic. Thanks to sids I have been enlightened.
