Bootstrap 5 Text Word break

Last Updated : 23 Jul, 2025

Text Word break is used to break the long string. Prevent long strings of text from breaking your components' layout by using text-break. This class is deprecated because a line break is not possible in Arabic, and the most used RTL language is Arabic.

Bootstrap 5 Text Word break Class:

  • text-break: This class is used to break the line.

Syntax:

<tag class="Text Word Break">...</tag>

Note: This class is deprecated.

The below examples illustrate the Bootstrap 5 Text Word break:
