Personally I wouldn't want words like Essex to be flagged. (Or Dickens or zaddick) > don't work if the word is embedded inside another string? Is there any way to control this behavior? After browsing thru the code ... http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/ABIGAIL/Regexp-Common-2016060801/lib/Regexp/Common/profanity.pm I saw this
So I doubt there is any possible flag to disable the hard coded \b meta character. But if you really need this feature you could just copy the code into your own subclass and change the pattern to your needs.
