## What is this?

This package exposes lists of profane words in several languages.

## When should I use this?

This is a flat list of words.
See [`cuss`][cuss] for the same words, rated for sureness: how likely they are
to be used as either profanity or clean text.

## Install

This package is [ESM only][esm].
In Node.js (version 14.14+, 16.0+), install with [npm][]:

```sh
npm install profanities
```

In Deno with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```js
import {profanities} from 'https://esm.sh/profanities@3'
```

In browsers with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```html

import {profanities} from 'https://esm.sh/profanities@3?bundle'

```

## Use

```js
import {profanities} from 'profanities'
import {profanities as profanitiesFr} from 'profanities/fr'

console.log(profanities.includes('butt')) // true
console.log(profanitiesFr.includes('boule')) // true
```

## API

`profanities` exports the following entries:

* `profanities`
— English
* `profanities/ar-latn`
— Arabic (Latin)
* `profanities/es`
— Spanish
* `profanities/fr`
— French
* `profanities/it`
— Italian
* `profanities/pt`

Each entry exports the identifier `profanities`.
There are no default exports.

### `profanities`

List of strings (`Array`).

## Data

The data includes many profane words and phrases in different languages.
In many contexts, those words are *not* profane though.
See [`cuss`][cuss] for the terms (and a rating of sureness).

## Types

This package is fully typed with [TypeScript][].
It exports no additional types.

## Compatibility

This package is at least compatible with all maintained versions of Node.js.
As of now, that is Node.js 14.14+, 16.0+, and 18.0+.
It also works in Deno and modern browsers.
