A Correct answer
Explanation

To hyphenate means to connect or divide words using a hyphen (-). Option A correctly defines this grammatical term. Hyphens join compound words (like 'mother-in-law') or divide words at line breaks. Options B, C, and D incorrectly suggest reducing or shortening - hyphens don't change meaning, just format.
