Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\starttext
\de\hyphenatedword{Rindfleisch}
\de\hyphenatedword{Rindfleischetikettierung}
\stoptext
I’m not a native speaker, but I think that "Rindfleisch-etikettierung"
is right in German. (And I think that "Rindflei-schetikettierung" is wrong.)
Are the hyphenation patterns wrong in the cases above, or am I missing
something?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

Yes it is wrong. Correct hyphenation points are
Rind-fleisch-e-ti-ket-tie-rung

That's difficult to do right with patterns, in latex it is isn't
correct either. The problem is that two words have been combined.
(Rindfleisch and Etikettierung).

I understand that this is an extreme example, so I’m going to add a new
hyphenation pattern to my presentation and forget about it.
Many thanks for your help,
