Provide hyphens where they are needed in these sentences or select NR option if not required.
Long discussions continued on the mid Atlantic items.

  1. NR
  2. Long discussions
  3. Atlantic items
  4. Mid Atlantic

hintHint:

The hyphen is a punctuation mark which is used to link two or more component words to form a compound word. It marks the boundary of distinct element words within a large compound word.

The correct answer is: Mid Atlantic


    The correct answer is "Mid Atlantic".
    In the above sentence, the speaker is talking of a long discussion on the topic of items related to the area of middle Atlantic ocean. Here, "mid"(middle) and "Atlantic" are presented as two individual words but actually the speaker wants to express the combined meaning derived from both these words. Thus, these two words must be linked to form the compound word "Mid-Atlantic"(The middle of Atlantic Ocean) and the hyphen mark should exist between both of them. So, the correct answer is "Mid Atlantic".
