Because it is a word with a single syllable, hue and cry is not hyphenated. The words that have a single syllable are called monosyllabic words.

Using the Knuth-Liang algorithm, we calculated the hyphenation for the word you’ve entered. However, this hyphenation has not been verified against authoritative sources and may be approximate.

We are working to verify hyphenations against trusted sources to ensure greater accuracy.
