Hi there!

AFAIK this should work:

\setuplanguage[de][
  leftquote=\guilsinglleft,
  rightquote=\guilsinglright,
  leftquotation=\guillemotleft,
  rightquotation=\guillemotright
]


setuplanguage[de][
  leftquote=\guilsingleleft,
  rightquote=\guilsingleright,
  leftquotation=\leftguillemot,
  rightquotation=\rightguillemot
]

However, this brings up a more general issue (for Hans, especially). The symbol is called a guillemet, a diminutive of Guillaume (Le Be), the typographer. It has nothing to do with the French word for word, mot. :-)

we already have (in enco-def):

\ifx\greeklamda\undefined \def\greeklamda{\greeklambda} \fi
\ifx\greekLamda\undefined \def\greekLamda{\greekLambda} \fi

and i've added:

\ifx\leftguillemet \undefined \def\leftguillemet {\leftguillemot } \fi
\ifx\rightguillemet\undefined \def\rightguillemet{\rightguillemot} \fi

Hans
