Hi Steffen,

...

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)?

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

\start\language[it] italian text italian text italian teste: steffen steffen \stop

\stoptext
