<span allow_breaks="false">A</span> hy­phen­ation al­go­rithm is a set of rules, espe­ci­ally one co­di­fied for im­ple­men­tation in a com­pu­ter pro­gram, that de­ci­des at which points a word can be bro­ken over two lines with a hy­phen. For ex­am­ple, a hy­phen­ation al­go­rithm might de­cide that im­peach­ment can be broken as <span allow_breaks="false">impeach‧ment</span> or <span allow_breaks="false">im‧peachment</span> but not <span allow_breaks="false">impe‧achment.</span>
