I always thought q. daily was wrong, but have received back corrections from QA with q. daily after I had changed it to daily. This is not a verbatim account. Am I wrong?

overread vs over-read vs over read
Subject: overread vs over-read vs over read
OneLook has a disclaimer for the definition of the word overread that says: This definition is from the 1913 Webster's Dictionary and may be outdated. Some of the links listed on OneLook give the definition, some say the word does not exist, another gives the definition and then says (not used). There are references online for over-read, overread, and over read. I think over-read with a hyphen is a nice compromise. It's situations like this that make me dazed and confused!
