The Icelandic hyphenation and language settings, though present in the installation (lang-is.lua), don’t seem to work on ConTeXt ver: 2016.05.17 19:20 MKIV current fmt: 2017.3.21 I’ve tried both \language[is] / \language[icelandic] and \mainlanguage[is] but the result is identical to English. Other languages (fr, ru, de) work as expected. Thanks in advance! ____________________________________________ Florian Grammel Copenhagen, Denmark

Adapting the example from http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/language http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/language to use luatex (which I’ll need).

Islandic is not defined as language \installlanguage [is] [default=en, patterns=is] look into lang-def.mkiv for what more is needed (and in lang-txt.lua) We can of course add that. Hans

Great, I can work with that! Just never occurred to me that it might not be defined, as it is in babel and all other babel-languages I tried seemed to be there. Could it be an idea to put all available ones on the list on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/language http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/language and add patterns=... to http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/installlanguage ? Best Florian.

Good idea. Feel free to add content to the wiki. I recently extended the Textadept http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Textadept article. I think the ConTeXt devs created a good start there, as well as I think that they have enough to do with ConTeXt alone. ;) Cheers, Sebastian

At first sight this seemed to work fine: the scheme is switched and the resulting hyphenations are mostly correct. But the patterns are in a way not complete. \hyphenatedword with context ver: 2017.04.08 12:09 MKIV beta fmt: 2017.4.9 (or TL16’s) gives: Önundur hét maður. Hann var Ófeigs-son burlu-fóts Ívars-sonar beytils. „Önundur“ var bróðir Guð-bjargar, móður Guð-brands kúlu, föður Ástu, móður Ólafs kon-ungs hins helga. Önundur var upp-lenskur að móð-urætt en föð-urkyn hans var mest um Roga-land og Hörða- land. while polyglossia/babel on (xe)latex find most of the orthographically possible ones: Ön-und-ur hét mað-ur. Hann var Ófeigs-son burlu-fóts Ívars-son-ar beytils. Ön-und-ur var bróð-ir Guð-bjarg-ar, móð-ur Guð-brands kúlu, föð-ur Ástu, móð-ur Ól-afs kon-ungs hins helga.

Thanks! I kept the default, because Icelandic conventions for quotes and spacing are like in German. Looks like that setting right/lefthyphenmin explicitely will work. Please excuse the noise! Florian.
