some things are easy (and can be written in parallel to watching a

\starttext
$\tan{x} + \cos{x}$
\mainlanguage[pl]
$\tan{x} + \cos{x}$
\mainlanguage[nl]
$\tan{x} + \cos{x}$
\stoptext
currently no special switch for math so it goes with mainlanguage (but
one can overload \mathlabellanguage)

Is there some sort of a standard for the abbreviations of such functions?
Does the standard just depend on your main language, or does it also
depend on a particular field?
Depending on that, we should either switch the labels based on the main
language, or using a \setupmathematics switch.

Hi,
The matter of abbreviations for mathematical functions depends on countries, or
maybe on languages: in French, somewhat like in Polish, the trigonometric
functions tangent, cotangent are denoted as \tg, \cotg, and \arcsin is printed
rather as arc{\,}sin. So the solution pointed out by Hans works fine (it is
something like \quote{} which yields different quotation marks depending on how
\mainlanguage[] is set). I just tested the example given by Hans with the
latest beta… (indeed only in mkiv, since mkii is frozen).
Eventually maybe the best solution would be to have
\setupmathematics[mainlanguage=pl]
