Provide hyphens where they are needed in these sentences or select NR option if not required.
Many are worried about our vice president's health.
Hint:
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 the element words, following certain grammatical rules and all compound words don't require hyphen.
The correct answer is: Vice president's
The correct answer is "NR".
If a noun is preceded by an adjective and both of them are forming a compound noun, usually hyphen marks are not required. Here, the word "president" is a noun since it refers to the name of a certain post, and "vice" is an adjective since it means "deputy" which qualifies the noun "president".. Thus, the compound noun "vice president" doesn't need a hyphen mark and the correct answer is "NR".
