Slugified text is typically used as a naming convention in programming languages, particularly in URLs, and is the practice of writing phrases without spaces or punctuation, and separating each word with a hyphen, -. For example to slugify the pharase The quick brown fox, would be the-quick-brown-fox.

Example Result
quick brown fox quick-brown-fox
Café Lāzy Dog cafe-lazy-dog
QUICK! Brown, fox! quick-brown-fox
Café brown fox
QUICK BROWN FOX
cafe-brown-fox-quick-brown-fox
