\hyphenation only works for the given language:
\hyphenation{macOS}
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1em]
\currentlanguage:
\hyphenatedword{macOS}
\startlanguage[fr]
\currentlanguage:
\hyphenatedword{macOS}
\stoplanguage
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
But I’d say that \registerhyphenationexception[macOS] was
language-independent for me some time ago. (Now it seems to work like
\hyphenation.)
In any case, \registerhyphenationexception seems to have issues with
ligatures:
\setuphyphenation[method=traditional]
\registerhyphenationexception[steff-en macOS]
\registerhyphenationexception[it][steff-en macOS]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1em]
\currentlanguage:
\hyphenatedword{steffen macOS}
\startlanguage[it]
\currentlanguage:
\hyphenatedword{steffen macOS}
\stoplanguage
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
If there isn’t a command to add language-indepented hyphenation
exceptions or patterns, one for proper names (for people, products or
companies) would be really useful.
Just in case Hans or other wizard may take a look at this,
