Splitting word across lines
#2
Yes, very very frequently. Sometimes almost every line has a split word at the end, if the columns are narrow.

Some scribes don't put a hyphen at the end. Some use a single hyphen, some use a double hyphen (like an equals sign).

I'll grab some examples for you (back in a few moments)...

Okay, here are some examples. Note that the one from 1440 on the upper right has both a line-continuation character (double-hyphen) and erasure symbols (the dots under the word):
