It's not hyphenated.

I assumed that the question was about where to break and hyphenate the word at the end of a line.
There are, to my mind, two places where it could be hyphenated: "res-pect-ively".

I read Lynn Truss' (or less common now, Truss's) book last year, the best seller with the Panda on the cover.
If she did, I don't recall her discussing any rules for hyphenation, and if she did, I'd expect such rules to be based on syllable/ph

I'm not sure whether the reported appearances of "leg-end" and "the-rapist" in pieces of text are genuine.

Nobody's in particular. The story goes that the unfortunate instances of hyphenation that I described have actually appeared in print, without specific instances being given. (Or if specific instances were given, then I can't remember what theyb were.)
