\concat should do what you want: something like:
\markup { \concat { "La " \musicglyph #"scripts.tickmark" } }

Subject: Dynamics and articulation in lyrics
I'm setting a song with multiple stanzas, in which I would like to include
dynamics and articulations (breathing, phrasing) within the text. After much
hunting around the docs and snippets, I've got this far:
/version "2.19.2"
...
secondverse = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = #"2."
\markup { \dynamic mf } Re -- mem -- ber me, a -- lace,
\markup { \musicglyph #"scripts.tickmark" }
And lat all rig -- our pass
\markup { \musicglyph #"scripts.tickmark" }
That I may prove in you some love
\markup { \musicglyph #"ties.lyric.default" }
To my joy and so -- lace
True love to move I most be -- hove
\markup { \dynamic p } Re -- mem -- ber me, a -- lace.
}
but the dynamics and articulations are taking space in the lyric underlay as
if they were syllables in their own right.
How should I solve this?
As a subsidiary question: Verses 4 & 5 of this song are set beneath the score
as markup columns. I'd like to do something similar in those verse also.
