Hyphen

Hi all,

Is it ever acceptable to write ‘strategically-advantaegous’ using the hyphen?

Thanks!

I doubt it. The Google Ngram Viewer shows no instances of the hyphenated form in its corpus of books from 1800 to the present. The unhyphenated form, however, is found in all historical periods.
