You can get the duration correct using:
lyricsWithDurations = \lyricmode {
"do" \breve __ |
"fa"1
}
However, this doesn't show the extender and I don't know whether this is
possible. My advice - don't use lyrics with explicit durations.

Subject: Manual syllable durations questions
Hello folks,
I’m trying to obtain a second score identical to the first one in the example
below, without using \lyricsto and with syllables having their duration
attached to them, but no way.
How can that be done?
And a side question: replacing d2 by r2 in variable ‘melody' makes only the
first syllable, ‘do’, to be kept, see second attached image.
I bumped on such a rest with <lyric /> attached in a MusicXML file I
translated with musicxml2ly. Maybe the best bet would be to ignore syllables on
rests?
Thanks for your help!
JM
