The correct answer is C. The friendly community had little-town charm
Explanation:
Hyphens (-) are punctuation marks mainly used to join two or more words and show the reader these words meaning is being combined which usually leads to a change in meaning in the sentence where there is a hyphen. As other punctuation marks hyphen follow specific grammar rules that include using the hyphen in compound nouns such as sister-in-law, using hyphens in numbers such as twenty-three; avoid to use hyphens in adverbs that end in "ly" and using hyphens to clarify the meaning of words in a sentence. Due to this, the sentence "The friendly community had little-town charm" uses hyphen correctly and gives the sentence a more positive connotation as in the case of "friendly community" there is no hyphen which is grammatically correct and "little-town" has been hyphen to clarify the meaning as in the sentence "The friendly community had little town charm" the reader can interpret the community had little charm, but by using a hyphen in "little-town" the meaning has a more positive connotation by stating the type of charm of the community can be compared to the charm of small towns, which modifies the previous meaning.
