When flowing digital text, it is sometimes preferable to break a word in half so that it continues on another line rather than moving the entire word to the next line. Since it is difficult for a computer program to automatically make good decisions on when to hyphenate a word, the concept of a soft hyphen was introduced to allow manual specification of a place where a hyphenated break was allowed without forcing a line break in an inconvenient place if the text was later reflowed. In contrast, a hyphen that is always displayed and printed is called a hard hyphen (though some use this term to refer to a non-breaking hyphen). Soft hyphens are most useful when the width of the column where the text is displayed is very narrow, because longer words in a sentence tend to force a line break in the text, leaving a lot of white space at the end of the line. By inserting soft hyphens into the text at the positions where hyphenation may occur, the text can flow better into columns leaving less remaining white space at the end of the lines.
assuming you meant Ash, it is a hard wood.
what are hard skills
Yes: soft-haired.
Yes. hard-boiled egg
Yes. "Hard-working" is a compound adjective, and therefore requires a hyphen between the two words. It is also correct to omit the hyphen and use the single word, "hardworking."
Hard can mean not soft or solid aswell as being difficult to accomplish.Difficult is only really meant in the sense of being hard to accomplish, understand or solve.
Hard
it is hard and sometimes soft
hard
soft you can bend and hard you can not
This is a fairly minor point of usage, but if you say hard boiled eggs you could be interpretted as saying that the eggs are both hard and boiled, when what you really mean is that the eggs were hard-boiled, which is to say, boiled for a longer time than they would be if you wanted soft-boiled eggs. So you can use the hyphen.
