I'm trying to get all hyphenations that the LaTeX-algorithm gives out. So I'm trying this:



echo "\documentclass{standalone}
\hyphenation{Py-ra-mi-de}
\showhyphens{Pyramide}" | xelatex


This does not give me any errors, so that the output contains



TU/lmr/m/n/10 Py-ra-mide


which I can parse for. But the hyphenation that it gives me is not Py-ra-mi-de, but Py-ra-mide. What do I do wrong here?

The default language (American English) sets lefthyphenmin=2 and righthyphenmin=3. Thus no TeX engine will hyphenate past the m, whatever hyphenation points you define.



If you try



documentclass{article}
usepackage[italian,english]{babel}

begin{document}

hyphenation{Py-ra-mi-de}

showhyphens{Pyramide}

selectlanguage{italian}

hyphenation{Py-ra-mi-de}

showhyphens{Pyramide}

end{document}


you get



Underfull hbox (badness 10000) in paragraph at lines 8--8
TU/lmr/m/n/10 Py-ra-mide

Underfull hbox (badness 10000) in paragraph at lines 14--14
TU/lmr/m/n/10 Py-ra-mi-de


It wouldn't be necessary to set the hyphenation points again, actually, because the hyphenation you want fits into the patterns for Italian. The settings for this language have lefthyphenmin=2 and righthyphenmin=2.

    You must set the hyphenmins correctly:



    documentclass{standalone}
    hyphenation{Py-ra-mi-de}


    begin{document}
    showhyphens{Pyramide}

    righthyphenmin1
    lefthyphenmin1

    showhyphens{Pyramide}

    end{document}


    The first showhyphens gives your output but the second now
