[NTG-context] Halfway between itemizations and descriptions

Hello, does ConTeXt have something which is halfway between itemizations and descriptions? I have a small set of properties that should be enumerated together. Right now I'm doing it by defining a \description and then doing \desc{something} stuff \par \desc{something else} other stuff \par etc However, this is an overall cumbersome syntax, especially for the result I would like to obtain. using \startitemize ...\stopitemize with \sym{something} \sym{something else} comes *very* close to what I would like but I can't seem to find a way to prevent the \sym text to wade into the actualt text of the description.
