By skyforbes Words are unaffected by space or punctuation, only alphanumeric characters. So while 'ah. o' (AHO) or 'so much' (OMU) is banned, 'ah l o' is not banned.
Edit: I found three exceptions so far. 'ass' is not banned, but 'ass ' and ' ass' is banned???? Only with a space??? It's like they're specifically targeting Grass Wonder, but 'Grass. Wonder' is fine. The same applies to 'ho' and 'sm', so rip Meisho Doto and any of the Sho's, and to SMaru/Smart Falcon. You also cannot have horse in the middle of a sentence. Maybe they removed 'ass' and 'ho' from the censor but forgot to remove 'ass ' and 'ho '? That's my only explanation for this
I'm more interested in short phrases because they're more likely to cause censorship in normal English sentences which is really annoying. I manually tested every 3-letter combination in the trainer bio box. Seems like 4-letter phrases are more commonly banned, but all 3-letter combos took 3 hours already so i am not wasting a week on this. The table is definitely incomplete, so comment more phrases if you've run into them before
