Word break
Prevent long strings of text from breaking your components' layout by using word break utilities.
| Class | Styles |
|---|---|
| .text-break | word-wrap: break-word; word-break: break-word; |
Prevent long strings of text from breaking your components' layout by using .text-break to set word-wrap: break-word and word-break: break-word. We use word-wrap instead of the more common overflow-wrap for wider browser support, and add the deprecated word-break: break-word to avoid issues with flex containers.

<p class="text-break">mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm</p> Note that breaking words isn't possible in Arabic, which is the most used RTL language. Therefore .text-break is removed from our RTL compiled CSS.
