Hi Fabio, You can add for instance, at the top of your setups: \mainlanguage[it] \setuplabeltext[it][figure=Foto ] Or whatever other words than « Foto » you may wish (beware: there should be a space after « Foto »). The command \setuplabeltext can be used also when translating other words like chapter, section, table, etc. Best regards: OK On 1 mai 2010, at 18:23, Fabio Tiriticco wrote:

Hi all, this is my first post here, and only because I couldn't find an answer in the database. I am using ConTeXt for an italian document (I used LaTeX years ago for my thesis and I like ConTeXt much better!) I would like to redefine the word used in figure captions. The default english is "Figure". If I switch to

\mainlanguage[it]

the word becomes "Fig." How can I arbitrarily decide what to show there?

thanks for the attention, Fabio
