Try \hbox{word} (AFAIR, this is a plain TeX command)
If you want a context command then use \mbox ;)
Is there any practical difference?
No but i wish there is one, e.g. the following example shows a problem
with \hbox.
\starttext
\hbox{test} text text
\blank
\dontleavehmode\hbox{test} text text
\stoptext
As you can see in the output the first 'test' starts 'text text' on a
new line and i forced \hbox
to appear in horizontal mode with \dontleavehmode and this can't be
changed because \hbox is a TeX
primitive and you have to rely on this behaviour. The \mbox command
isn't a primitive and i would
be so easy to add \dontleavehmode to it's definition to make sure the
text after \mbox won't appear
on a new line, this means in this example both lines result in the same
output.
\starttext
\dontleavehmode\hbox{test} text text
\blank
\mbox{test} text text
\stoptext
