Well, I now include an image; I usually write a "long underscore" when there is something that lasts in a next syllable; like in the example, "Sa -- cra
-- men __ tum" (here you can see what i mean in "men __ tum", or "to
__que"). I do not give trace about the syllable to be sung after "cer -- nu
-- i". The "i"

must be sung for the other three notes; is there a "rule" that says what
should be done? I hope to have expressed myself in a comprehensible way.
Thanks.


I believe you are confusing the syntax for hyphens with that for extenders. Use 2 minus signs with a space either side for a hyphen (like " -- " but with no quote marks). Use two underscores for extenders " __ ".
