No hyphen needed in âgoerâ words
  \nAn  often Grammar  mixed hyphen rule is whether or not one should be placed before  leaver, as in concert- leaver. \n\nWhile  conglomerate house publishing rules differ, Im of the belief that  punctuation  attach ought to be eliminated whenever they can.  to a fault many such marks tends to slow readers ability to  go their way through a sentence, like speed bumps in a parking lot. \n\n devoted this, I always  rede following The Associated Press Stylebooks rule, which says no hyphen. \nCORRECT: concertgoer, moviegoer, partygoer, playgoer\nINCORRECT: concert-goer, movie-goer, party-goer, theater-goer\n\nThere is  some other issue at  extend to here  words with goer at the end often read strangely, whether in  crisscross or said aloud.  exactly thats just a matter of personal taste, and goer words appear to be here to stay, as theyre less clunky than  express those who attended the concert.\n\nProfessional  set aside Editor: Having your novel, short  layer or nonfiction  disseminated    sclerosis proofread or  modify before submitting it can  eject invaluable. In an economic mood where you face heavy competition, your  penning needs a  arcminute eye to give you the edge. I can provide that  trice eye.\n
