css break word with hyphen

Question

I want to break the long word with the hyphen at the end of the first line.

Expected:

BERUFSBILDUNGSZENT-
RUM

Got this:

BERUFSBILDUNGSZENT
RUM

Here's my html and css:

<div class="content">BERUFSBILDUNGSZENTRUM</div>

.content {
  max-height: 80px;
  width: 200px;
  overflow-x: hidden;
  word-wrap: break-word;
  padding: 10px;
  -webkit-hyphens: auto;
  -moz-hyphens: auto;
  -ms-hyphens: auto;
  hyphens: auto;
  font-weight: bold;
  font-size: 16px;
  border: solid 1px #000;
}

Chrome does not do hyphenation apparently (at least on Windows). You may fare better with other browsers or platforms. You can use ­ (soft hyphen) if you know in advance where you want to break. Otherwise, at least in Chrome on Windows there's no way to get a hyphen when CSS breaks a long word, unless it was in the input to start with.

.content {
  max-height: 80px;
  width: 200px;
  overflow-x: hidden;
  word-wrap: break-word;
  padding: 10px;
  font-weight: bold;
  font-size: 16px;
  border: solid 1px #000;
}

Using soft hyphen:
<div class="content">BERUFSBILDUNGSZEN&shy;TRUM</div>    

Using automatic hyphenation (doesn't work in Chrome)
<div class="content" lang="de" style="hyphens: auto; ">BERUFSBILDUNGSZENTRUM</div>

Soft hyphen not displayed if it doesn't break there
<div class="content" style="width: 400px; ">BERUFSBILDUNGSZEN&shy;TRUM</div>
