How to deal with a word like willy-nilly in a songtext

• Apr 27, 2020 - 10:19

May I introduce to you? My name is Wolfram Hüttermann and I am from Germany. I have been working with musescore intensively for six weeks and I can give you some tricks. Some English words have hyphens like the word "willy-nilly". If you use this word in a song, you cannot write it like wil-ly-nil-ly. The trouble is that this word will appear like "willynilly" if you copy the textsong into a clipboard.
What can one do? You have to protect the second hyphen, then this word will appear as it is written. I Here is some information how to put such a hyphen in your computer:

Looking for lyrics in the chapter called lyrics which is referenced as such directly from the main page isn't that far fetched though, is it? I agree that some other parts are way harder to find easily, but this isn't one of them.
