Hello, When I try to start a syllable that continues after the repeat, I have a problem.
Lilypond complains loudly:
repeats.ly:24:38: warning: unterminated hyphen; removing
Below an example that should read
Oh, tralalala! Tralalali!
(Of course the hyphen would "kind of" work if I add "li!" at the end –
it would pretend as if the word was "Tra -- li" and would place the
hyphen to the wrong place.)
What's the best recipe to fix such cases?
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Voice = "melody" \fixed c' {
\time 2/4
a2 | a2 |
\repeat volta 2 {
a4 a4 |
}
\alternative {
{ a4 a4 |}
{ a2 | }
}
\bar "|."
}
% the last hyphen after 'Tra" is problematic and gets removed
\context Lyrics = "lyrics" {
\lyricsto "melody" {
Oh, tra -- la -- la -- la! Tra --
% li!
}
}
>>
Another problem are cases which I would intuitively write
tra -- _ -- la
where the first syllable "tra" would be sung across two pitches. But
if I do the above, the hyphen gets lost and I get "tra la" that
looks as if I had two words rather than "tra - la" (I can add a full
example if the question is not clear).
Is there any way to get the hyphen back (other than adding an explicit
slur)? If I just add a slur, it would not always work because
different stanzas might be different.
Thank you,
Mojca
