Hyphenation is performed by the reading device using a hyphenation dictionary for each supported language. I have also seen that English words are occasionally split at incorrect locations. It is up to Amazon to fix that.

The best you can do is to make sure that you have the correct language specified in both the OPF metadata and the HTML content of your book.

Choosing left alignment does not prevent hyphenation. It will still be used to prevent unusually short lines of text.

If you are familiar with how the edit the source files you are converting, you can turn off hyphenation completely in all or part of the text using CSS. The property to set for this is:

-webkit-hyphens: none
