I have (i was used to run a very old version of groff that didn't
ship with the files) the following in one of my .tmac's:
.hla de
.hpf hyphen.de
.hpfa hyphenex.de
This gets me going (hyphen.de and hyphenex.de can be found in the
$GROFF_TMAC_PATH, as well, see `man groff', section
`ENVIRONMENT'). Here, hyphen.de contains TeX \patterns{..} which
look like `.aa6l .ab3a4s' etc. and hyphenex.de contains mostly
\hyphenation{..} overwrites, as in `AIDS % AI-DS', which makes me
assume the `ex' suffix means `exceptions' indeed. So you need the
generic patterns which feed in the algorithm, and may have
exceptions which tweak the result of it where it fails.
That's all i know :)
