Word Spacing

The word-spacing property controls the amount of spaces between words in your text, and works much the same way as the letter-spacing property.

The default value for word-spacing is normal, which is also the equivalent of the value 0. This means that a negative value will bring the words closer together, and a positive value will push them apart. A common misunderstanding is that the value 0 will cause the words to have no spaces between them, and that any negative value will begin to make the words overlap.
