Hello, I want to ask you about hyplenation.

I want to add hyphenation patterns to my document. I've read this:
http://www-h.eng.cam.ac.uk/help/tpl/textprocessing/teTeX/latex/latex2e-html/ltx-244.html
Which says I can add a \hyphenation command filled with a list of word
and hyphens where I want to hyphenate them.

It also says that words containing special characters should not be
included there. I should use \- in the text instead.

Can XeTeX handle foreign characters in the \hyphenation command?

S.
