OK, which do you like better:
- nonsolicitation provision
- no-soliciting provision
And here:
- nondisparagement provision
- no-disparaging provision
And here:
- noncompetition provision
- no-competing provision
Me, I like the second option in each.
The first option is a clunky abstract noun. Boo. The second is a gerund, basically a verb form acting as a noun. (More on gerunds here.) Less clunky. Yay.
