Vocab Blocked – Arcade won't generate audio for the word "overweight"

Bugs

I’m creating a memory game in which students are going to match appearance descriptions to people. Arcade won’t let me generate an audio for the word “overweight”, which is the more-polite word our textbook says we should use instead of “fat”.

    Hey @Davi José . This should now be much more accepting of words and phrases that make contextual sense to the game. Please let us know if there’s still issues or over-moderation!

    I’ve found other words blocked for audio generation: “ugly” and “dirty.” I’m using them to teach opposite adjectives (e.g. beautiful/ugly, clean/dirty). I use them in context, such as “an ugly man” or “dirty socks.” I don’t think there’s a big issue with using these words.
