I have not had a single hyphenated word appear in the dozen or so books I have read since buying the Kobo Glo, and thought before reading this thread that perhaps this was a limitation of ebooks. Is there a setting to turn this feature on or off? The Kobo help pages have NO entry for the word "hyphen". I almost exclusively read in English but bought the Kobo here in Germany. Could it be that no English hyphenation dictionary is included in the German version (the menu language is set to English and works fine; the dictionary list shows an English dictionary being active)? How can I check this?

Thanks!
