I am really curious on whom it is who is entering in the words on the Alphabetty app .... I play the app everyday and There are at least 5 or more words a day that I try to enter and it says that its NOT a word when I know for a fact that these are all words NO theyre arent hyphinated nor anything of that nature but I think its a damn shame that i can put  the word NIGGER In and it actually works not only that but many other SWEAR words but when it comes down to REAL words they wont go in.............. CAN SOMEONE with a real brain please go in and RE do and adjust the dictionary you have got in this app I would really appreciate it thanks ....

    Listing the missing real words which you've found would help, I've seen other post about the same thing and some words have be included and taken out since.

    Hi @Enne4naomi !

    The game features all English words that you can find in an English dictionary, including swearing and all other bad words. Both American and British spelled words are accepted.

    Since the word still is in the dictionaries Merriam Webster and/ or Oxford English Dictionary, it is still accepted in the game. We do not endorse to use it and you are not forced to spell that word in the game. However, we understand that many words are offensive and are words that should not be used anymore.

    To avoid this type words in the game, I would recommend to simply spell another word when playing.

    Thank you for raising this though. It’s a good reminder that this word should no longer be used.
