I think this is exactly the problem we are discussing here. With LHM=3 and RHM=3, I prevent the hyphenation of German "also", "eine" and other similar ones. But also Er-kennt-nis (the first syllabe), eben-so and Me-tho-de aren’t hyphenated. In Spanish, I don’t want to hyphenate either four--letter words like "co-mo". But I want to be able to hyphenate "co-mi-da". And I must have both or none. > Then I could add a list of short German words where 2-2 hyphenation > looks OK. I’m not sure whether I missing something specific feature of the German language. But I would say that readability in hyphenation depends on word length. This is why I think that a command similar to \wordhyphenmin would make sense here. But, please, let me know what I’m missing. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
