14 A word in Lyrics mode begins with: an alphabetic character, @code{_},
15 @code{?}, @code{!}, @code{:}, @code{'}, the control characters @code{^A}
16 through @code{^F}, @code{^Q} through @code{^W}, @code{^Y}, @code{^^},
17 any 8-bit character with ASCII code over 127, or a two-character
18 combination of a backslash followed by one of @code{`}, @code{'},
19 @code{"}, or @code{^}.
21 Subsequent characters of a word can be any character that is not a digit
22 and not white space. One important consequence of this is that a word
23 can end with `@code{@}}', which may be confusing. However, LilyPond will
24 issue a warning. Any @code{_} character which appears in an unquoted
25 word is converted to a space. This provides a mechanism for introducing
26 spaces into words without using quotes. Quoted words can also be used
27 in Lyrics mode to specify words that cannot be written with the above
