Answered by GPT-4o mini
Yes, a dash is often used to indicate an abrupt shift in thought or to emphasize a particular point. It can create a strong break in the sentence, drawing attention to what follows. Additionally, dashes can also be used for other purposes, such as to set off explanatory phrases or to indicate interruptions in dialogue. However, in the context of your options, using a dash for an abrupt shift in idea is particularly common.
