[stylist] When needing to divide a word

[Shelley J. Alongi]

I use dictionary.com this way. ON the first page the first form says 
unlabeled button 1 beneath it. type the word there and click it. On the next 
page is the results plus a lot of other choices. Use h for heading to get to 
heading 1 and that gives you the word and the pronunciation phonetically. 
Use H again for heading level 2 and that gives the word and divides it. For 
some reason the character doesn't speak for the division, maybe it's - but 
it's there. the definition is there, too with a lot of links. It takes some 
getting used to, the site is still an excellent one. It used to be a lot 
easier but it is what it is.
