2. If you really want to have that slur (it is appropriate at times),
I would say that there is almost no situation where a slur is appropriate to
indicate legato to a singer. Its almost universal meaning is to show
melisma, as I said. If it's not for this purpose, it's for
phrasing/breathing and a phrasing slur would be appropriate.
Singers sing legato when it is indicated with the word "legato".
