Dashes are often used to separate the title of a work from the title of the book, and dashes are added before the subtitle. Sometimes, there is a dash before and after the subtitle. Some books don't need a dash before the subtitle, but the font size is smaller than the title. For example, The Outline of World History, a concise history of biology and mankind, was written by British writer Herjo Wells and published by People's Publishing House.

The development of dashes

Heng Chang has many uses in the history of western punctuation marks, and it was shaped and popularized as a dash in the17 ~18th century. Tiret, the modern name of French dash, first appeared in 1554, which originated from the verb tiret (draw a line).

English dashes appeared in the second half of17th century. Formerly known as break, it means "break, break and die", which means to stop or interrupt suddenly. /kloc-it was renamed dash in the 0/8th century. The word daschen was written in the Middle Ages and is believed to be borrowed from Danish daske, which originally meant "slapping and rushing". At the beginning of 1552, it was described as "drawing a short horizontal line" and later developed into the name of modern dash.

Dashes appeared in German in the second half of17th century. Russian began to use dashes in the late18th century, called tabIe, and its name was borrowed from French.

The length of Chinese dash occupies the position of two words, and the length of western dash is equivalent to one word in Chinese.
