\setuppapersize[S6][S6]
\setuptyping[option=commands]

\starttext

\def\naturaltextext#1\relax
  {\bgroup
   \prettynaturalfont
   \def\ascii{#1}%
   \setnormalcatcodes
   \restorecatcodes
   \scantokens\expandafter{\ascii}\ifhmode\unskip\fi
   \egroup}

\let\texy\naturaltextext

\starttyping
test /naturaltextext\hpos{word}{test}/relax test
test /texy \rm is the word/relax test
\stoptyping

\MPxy{word}

\stoptext
