Two dashes either side of the first word in the last word. Helps if you do the strikethrough bit all on one line. You can preview the post, then edit so it's part of the whole paragraph again if you want.

like this

Strikethrough: hello gives hello

no spaces between the letters and hyphens

The 2 dashes doesn’t work on an iphone, they join up.

On an iphone, look at the 3 circles below the message box. A smokey face, an italic I and a paper clip. Click the italic I. This gives you a selection of italic, bold, strikethrough etc. Chose strikethrough. This puts the dashes in the message box for you. Type you text in between the two sets of 2 dashes.
