longwall
A method of mining. A continuous miner removes a long column of coal, letting the top of the mine fall behind it. Subsidence is more or less immediate, as opposed to "room and pillar" mining where the roof is supported and subsidence is delayed. This should not be hyphenated as a compound modifier. Hyphenating it makes it a long wall. While it may seem like a long wall, room and pillar mining would also produce long walls and are mined with similar equipment. "Long-wall" mining is not as specific as "longwall mining" as a technique. It's time to drop the hyphens in longwall, coalbed, daycare and other common words.

Having my first cup of coffee in the new cup. Good idea to add new terms through individual contributions.
10/10 Looks exactly like the preview. Shipping was fast.
This is for my granddaughter whom I used to call cutie patootie until she found out another meaning for patootie. Then she didn’t like the name so much! This will be a perfect gift for her! She is 16.
Love the cups :) It reminds us of our sweet momma. I thought everyone knew the word "mommicked" but evidently it is an Eastern North Carolina thing...My sisters and I all married Northerner/ Yankees and they had never heard of the word. Thank you for a tender memory.
