\slash, or in LyX: Insert > Special Character > Breakable Slash

I usually use the following redefinition of the slash macro in the preamble:

\def\slash{/\penalty\exhyphenpenalty\hski...@skip}

Contrary to the original (which is defined in the LaTeX kernel), this one 
allows also hyphenations after the slash, as in Semantics/Pragma-tics

HTH,
