When I use

\language[nl]

then \currentdate says, currently, "13 Augustus 2002", as expected.
But \placefigure labels my figures with "Figure m.n", instead of
"Figuur m.n". Are such labels not automatically translated by \language?

I finally succeeded in getting "Figuur"  with

\setuplabeltext[en][figure=Figuur ]

which is not inline with my intuition: I would have expected that

\setuplabeltext[nl][figure=Figuur ]

would have been needed, but that does not work...

Hi,

Have you tried \mainlanguage[nl]?
Mainlanguage is for the complete document whereas language is only for
the current part of the document. Thus the behaviour makes really sense
:-)

That did it! Thanks Tobias. By the way: with "current part of the
document" you probably mean the current part of the *text*
