@endExample
+Without those assignments, groff treats German words like
+@w{`Kindergärten'} (the plural form of `kindergarten') as two
+substrings @w{`kinderg'} and @w{`rten'} because the hyphenation code
+of the umlaut@tie{}a is zero by default. There is a German
+hyphenation pattern which covers @w{`kinder'}, so groff finds the
+hyphenation `kin-der'. The other two hyphenation points
+(`kin-der-gär-ten') are missed.
