Changing it to just vowels means ignoring “hm-m” or “stop-p-p”. --- www/contribute/producing-an-ebook-step-by-step.php | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/www/contribute/producing-an-ebook-step-by-step.php b/www/contribute/producing-an-ebook-step-by-step.php index e433d7bb..84fee712 100644 --- a/www/contribute/producing-an-ebook-step-by-step.php +++ b/www/contribute/producing-an-ebook-step-by-step.php @@ -269,6 +269,12 @@ proceed to seal up my confession, I bring the life of that unhappy Henry Jekyll +

    + Non-breaking hyphens are used when a word is stretched out for effect. +

    Although it will produce a lot of false positives, this regex can help you find stretched words: (?i)([a-z])-\1
