Unh-unh. Sorry. hand-out with a hyphen is a noun. As in, "He came into the room with the hand-out supplies he had brought with him." Not a good noun or a strong noun.

"He came to hand out supplies" [without the hyphen] would be the verbal form.

(I didn't start this.)

I saw the same thing as someone else, Trump got the truck full of supplies ready in advance. Makes sense, you can’t figure out just what they need and get it ready in a day or two. OK maybe Trump can...

I saw baby food, diapers, bundles of socks, toys and shop towels. An article I read listed food supplies and cleaning supplies and blankets too.

One liberal on another forum whined about Trump handing out toys, I asked how many kids just lost every toy they ever had and what was in the truck the poster sent, and listed just what I had seen of what else was unloaded.

No reply.

“Unh-unh” means “no.” “Uh-huh” means “yes.”

It doesn’t say “the hand-out supplies.”

It says Trump came to “donate and hand-out supplies.”

The hyphen should not be there.
