Please keep tis bug report open. I agree that swear words is an old-fashioned concept that's becomming less relevant to young people today. However, Tom is right, there's still currently plenty of good reasons why that word shouldn't be included in the dictionary. I can certainly imagine it spinning a typical classroom out of control.

This isn't a case of censorship or being 'old people', it's a case of what's appropriate. We also don't want to have warnings slapped on Edubuntu for parental advisory, etc.

So, even though the swear word idea is kind of outdated, please don't close it, it's certainly valid!
