Link between two words (6)

I believe the answer is:

hyphen

(Other definitions for hyphen that I've seen before include "Mark joining two words" , "A horizontal word-joiner" , "Punctuation mark separating words" , "seen in T-shirt and G-string" , "A horizontal word joiner" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
