== Indicating hyphenation patterns manually / optional hyphens ==\starttext
If you have a few foreign words in your text, or simply a few unusual ones, they may hyphenate incorrectly but not be worth invoking a different \hyphenation{{cmd|language}intraword} for. You can define ad-hoc \hyphenation patterns with the command {{cmd|hyphenation}intra}:
<texcode>{\bf input -- normal output -- hyphenated output}\ShowComposed{intraword} \crlf\hyphenationShowComposed{hääintra-yö-aieword} \crlf</texcode>\ShowComposed{intra||word} \crlf\ShowComposed{intra|-|word} \crlfIf you just need to fix a single \ShowComposed{intra|(|word, you can add an optional hyphen )} \crlf\ShowComposed{(hyphenation hintintra|) with the escaped hyphen '|word} \crlf\ShowComposed{intra|--|word} \crlf\ShowComposed{cmdintra|-~|word} \crlf\ShowComposed{intra|_|word} \crlf\ShowComposed{intra|=|word} \crlf\ShowComposed{intra|': <code>kai|word} \crlf\-vosShowComposed{intra|*|word} \-aukcrlf\-kostoptext</codecontext>.

This dash can be placed between two | characters, for example |-|.
