Word getting cut off because string is longer than the console
Hello, I am doing the finishing touches on the little star wars database I created as practice for C#. In the first screenshot, I have circled where the word gets cut off (ignore the fact it's french) and I'm not sure how to fix this. I have also attached the code for this. Any help? (I am a very very new beginner. I started this weekend.)

i don't know if there's anything built in, but you could come up with a word-wrapping algorithm that takes the console width and adds newlines to the string at more convenient points

Oh man that sounds complicated
I’ll leave it like that and come change it back when I have more experience
if you ignore the fact the console can change size the algorithm itself isn't terribly hard
i'd start with just writing a method that wraps lines to a specified maximum line length
at minimum that could be a handy reusable piece of code if you're doing a lot of displaying text
