**** Usage notes
- Often forms compounds which (with some exceptions: see derived terms and references) are properly formed with a hyphen; e.g. _interim-manager_ , similar to _meester-architect_ and _aspirant-arts_ . Nonetheless these are very commonly written with a space instead of a hyphen (e.g. _interim manager_ ), though this spelling is generally proscribed. [1] [2]
