I do get ἅπαν-τα, even with its hyphenation exception commented out.
That’s probably because of \lefthyphenmin: if (as I would except), its value is two, you won’t get the hyphenation ἅ-. Try setting it to one and see what happens.
Sorry, is not the first hyphen the one that I’m missing.
But that’s the one I was commenting on :-)
The issue here for me is that I get a change in \agr from ἅπα-ντα to ἅπαν-τα, just by adding a totally unrelated pattern (2γ1μ).
I can see that, but that’s a red herring. As you can see in the following example, there is already an issue with mixing patterns in one language: ---- \setupbodyfont[dejavu] \setuphyphenation[method=traditional] \setuplanguage[es][patterns={es,agr}] \mainlanguage[agr] \startTEXpage[offset=1em] \type{single language:} \hyphenatedword{ἅπαντα} \type{two languages:} {\es\hyphenatedword{ἅπαντα}} \stopTEXpage \stoptext ---- The first example yields ἅπα-ντα (incorrect according to the patterns), the second one ἅπαν-τα (correct up to \lefthyphenmin). Hans, please comment :-) The result should be the same in both cases, since the Spanish and Ancient Greek patterns don’t interfere with each other -- and in any case the example with only the Greek patterns is already incorrect.
