The file /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/generic/hyphen/hyphen.tex (in the
texlive-base package in Debian) looks like:
% The Plain TeX hyphenation tables [NOT TO BE CHANGED IN ANY WAY!]
% Unlimited copying and redistribution of this file are permitted as long
% as this file is not modified. Modifications are permitted, but only if
% the resulting file is not named hyphen.tex.
\patterns{ % just type <return> if you're not using INITEX
.ach4
.ad4der
.af1t
[...]
4z1z2
z4zy
}
\hyphenation{ % Do NOT make any alterations to this list! --- DEK

It does not understand that lines with an % are comment. It does
not understand the "\patterns{" line, the "}" line.
I have to change the file to:
.ach4
.ad4der
.af1t
[...]
4z1z2
z4zy
to be able to use it.
