I am pasting text into a text box in InDesign, I have a Paragraph Style set for that box and I am using "Justify with last line aligned left" (as seen in the screenshot).

I'm not sure how to turn off hyphenation for this paragraph, or is it bad practice to leave it on?

Is there a way to tell InDesign not: how to break words in a Paragraph? (hyphenation)turn off hyphenation

I am pasting this text into a text box in InDesign, I have a Paragraph Style set for that box and I am using "Justify with last line aligned left" (you can seeas seen in the screenshot, the red circles)

The problem is that I want to know if there is a way that the words in the text don't get breaked in two in between the lines. If the word doesn't fit at the end of the row I want it to go on the next row, not to break into syllabes like in the screenshot I took.

I hope there is a wayI'm not sure how to doturn off hyphenation for this automaticly. But if there isn't...paragraph, or is it bad practice to leave it like that? should I manually push the words to the next row or can I leave it like that, breaked into syllabeson? [you can see the screenshot here if it doesn't appear in the question]

EDIT:

I just wanted to add something for others, like me, who are not native English speakers. The term I was looking for was hyphenation, and is probably common in most programs. I did not know this term so I couldn't even ask the question properly or search for help.

There is a checkbox(Hyphenate) in the Paragraph window in InDesign![enter image description here][1] [1]: https://i. The Paragraph Styles window also has a Hyphenation tab with several optionssstatic. Hopefully this edit will be useful for non-native English speakers like menet/o86Lm.
