Re: In wait for a subsequent word (sorry how can I put it)?

Hi all,

> Regarding the hyphenation of sanctus

Sanc - tus
(e.g., http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Sanctus)

Hyphenation is the same in sung and spoken typesetting. The rules have nothing 
to do with what sound you can hold (i.e., pitched versus unpitched phonemes), 
but rather what syllabic division is likeliest to lead to correct prediction of 
the completion of the word (regardless of whether the word is spoken or sung or 
simply read).

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
