Paracryptozoology or Para-cryptozoology?
I learned a lovely new word today. It's the word for that field of study I was already familiar with but did not have a proper name for- that grey area where parapsychology and cryptozoology overlap. But… Google's AI overview is confusing me. I wanted to know if Para-cryptozoology was more accepted as a way to write it or Paracryptozoology. So I googled… (See attached image). It said Parapcryptozoology is the more accepted term.
Okay. And just to be thorough I googled again but this time replaced Paracryptozoology with Paracryptozoologist. This time it said the more accepted spelling is with the hyphen. Para-Cryptozoologist. So which is it?
Is it "Paracryptozoology" but when it's "ist' it's "Para-cryptozoologist?" And if so, why?
