What punctuation mark indicates syllabication?

The punctuation mark that indicates syllabication is the hyphen (-).

For example:

* syl-la-bi-ca-tion

* re-al-i-ty

* un-der-stand

This helps readers understand how to break down a word into its separate syllables, especially when a word is too long to fit on one line.
