Hyphenation via the Knuth-Liang algorithm — result not verified against authoritative sources.

Assuming o' is a valid dictionary word, it wouldn't be hyphenated because it's monosyllabic (a word with a single syllable).

Using the Knuth-Liang algorithm, we calculated the hyphenation for the word you've entered. However, this hyphenation may be approximate, because the algorithm relies on pre-defined patterns that may not cover all exceptions, contextual variations, or irregular spellings.
