an interrupted sentence is much like a thought added onto a thought. or a fact adding onto a proceeding fact. when you read an interrupted sentence, it sounds a lot like natural pauses or the use of commas. you can use 1 or 2 hyphens/dashes for an interrupted sentence.
ex 1: the car's dull color - though once smooth and sleek - scratched off when you rubbed it
ex 2: Her hands, however, were not pretty - not pale enough, perhaps, rough at the knuckles, and they were too long, with a harshness of line.
I'm writing an essay involving interrupted sentences right now and the 2nd example is from an excerpt of my prompt. I asked my teacher about it and so I can be fairly sure example 2 is how you would write an interrupted sentence using a single hyphen.
