Indeed, the combination Amsterdam-Buitenveldert is the culprit. The solution therefore is to use (it is ConTeXt afterall) Amsterdam|-|Buitenveldert, then the word Amsterdam doesn't even needs an exception. Thanks for the help.

Compound words are by default hyphenated only at the hyphen in TeX. \setbreakpoints[compound] works in the following sample: \language[nl] \setbreakpoints[compound] \starttext \hyphenatedword{Amsterdam--Buitenveldert} \stoptext I don’t know whether it would make sense to use an en-dash for compound words in Dutch. I hope it helps now, Pablo
