Thank you for vour investigation. The difference is, that in „geißeln“ the hyphenation is in front of the ß, in „wußte“ behind it. Those before ß XeTeX looses always, the others only sometimes. With babel it works fine, when you give them the marks with \hyphenation{}. I don't understand this difference, but I want XeTeX to find the hyphenation points from the patterns, as all the others. --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- \documentclass{article} %\sepackage{polyglossia} %\setdefaultlanguage{german} \usepackage[german]{babel} \usepackage{xltxtra} \hyphenation{ drei-ßig schie-ßen gie-ßen bü-ßen } \begin{document} \showhyphens{dreißig} \showhyphens{gießen} \showhyphens{schießen} \showhyphens{büßen} %showthe\lefthyphenmin %showthe\righthyphenmin \end{document} --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Georg
