Hi,
please have a look at this minimal example.
The idea is to set the hyphenation for certain words regardless of the language that is used in the surrounding paragraphs.
In this example it should stay: «steff-en»
How do i set this to all non-english paragraphs (without using \hyphenation on each language-switch)?
Best,
Steffen

Untested: try specifying the exceptions first, load mainlanguage later?
Or, use \hyphenation?
Have you tested any if these?
Or, you could use multiple exception blocks...

You can use \replaceword:
\starttext
\setuppapersize[A6][A6]
\mainlanguage[en]
\replaceword[hyphenations][steffen][steff{-}{}{}en]
\setreplacements[hyphenations]
english text english text english teste: steffen steffen

Hi Steffen,
> … \replaceword should be the correct way for proper hyphenation??
Well I'm not sure if it's "correct", but it seems to work. Based on my
testing, having three subsequent sets of groups ({A}{B}{C}) is converted
to a discretionary. The discretionary hyphen "\-" is equivalent to the
Plain TeX command "\discretionary{-}{}{}", so
\replaceword[hyphenations][steffen][steff{-}{}{}en]
acts just like "steff\-en". TeX won't otherwise hyphenate a word with
discretionaries, so this means that "steff-en" will be the only allowable
hyphenation.

Just one caveat though. IIRC, Hans has mentioned that this kind of stuff is slower than using the hyphenation engine directly. (That's why he has reimplemented the ligature suppression mechanism on the hyphenation level, rather than acting on the node list.)
Best,
Denis

Isn’t there a way to list exceptions that will work in *all* languages?

I thought that \hyphenation would work like that, or \startexceptions without a language code. Apparently that's not the case.

\hyphenation only works for the given language:
\hyphenation{macOS}
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1em]
\currentlanguage:
\hyphenatedword{macOS}
\startlanguage[fr]
\currentlanguage:
\hyphenatedword{macOS}
\stoplanguage
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
But I’d say that \registerhyphenationexception[macOS] was
language-independent for me some time ago. (Now it seems to work like
\hyphenation.)
In any case, \registerhyphenationexception seems to have issues with
ligatures:
\setuphyphenation[method=traditional]
\registerhyphenationexception[steff-en macOS]
\registerhyphenationexception[it][steff-en macOS]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1em]
\currentlanguage:
\hyphenatedword{steffen macOS}
\startlanguage[it]
\currentlanguage:
\hyphenatedword{steffen macOS}
\stoplanguage
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
If there isn’t a command to add language-indepented hyphenation
exceptions or patterns, one for proper names (for people, products or
companies) would be really useful.
Just in case Hans or other wizard may take a look at this,
Pablo

Steffen,
meanwhile, a way of crappy cheating...
\setuphyphenation[method=traditional]
\doloopoverlist{en,nl,de,es,it,fr,da,fi}
{\registerhyphenationexception[\recursestring][Joha-nnes]}
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1em]
\hyphenatedword{Johannes}\\
\nl \hyphenatedword{Johannes}\\
\de \hyphenatedword{Johannes}\\
\es \hyphenatedword{Johannes}\\
\language[it] \hyphenatedword{Johannes}\\
\language[fi] \hyphenatedword{Johannes}\\
\fr \hyphenatedword{Johannes}\\
\da \hyphenatedword{Johannes}\\
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext

Pablo
