Wow, that's super helpful. The English pattern seems to be
"ap-plic-a-ble"
According to Meriam-Webster it should just be "ap·pli·ca·ble".
{EN: \en\hyphenatedcoloredword{obligate}} gives me "ob-lig-ate"
According to Meriam-Webster it should be "ob·li·gate".
I've had a look at the files mentioned by Tomáš, but as these are not
just wordlists I can not really tell what is happening.
So, is that a bug?
Not really. hyphenation patterns are a bit like applying JPEG
compression to
a dictionary. It makes the data size smaller by recognising patterns
while
ignoring outliers.
Occasional errors are to be expected, which is why \hyphenation exists.
I see. I've noticed lang-us.lua has a list of exceptions in it:
["exceptions"]={
["characters"]="abcdefghijlmnoprstuyz",
["data"]="as-so-ciate as-so-ciates dec-li-na-tion oblig-a-tory
phil-an-thropic present presents project projects reci-procity
re-cog-ni-zance ref-or-ma-tion ret-ri-bu-tion ta-ble",
["length"]=168,
["n"]=14,
},
Would it be possible to add more exceptions to that list as they come
up? Or is that inappropriate?
you can add your own runtime in a style:
\hyphenation {fo-ob-ar} \hsize 1mm foobar
