This is not really a good question to ask, as you can't get specific answers. The filter will catch anyone who tries to answer. It's probably not a good idea for someone to make a list of swear words to answer your question. However, one can use their good sense to determine whether a word is appropriate for a children's site. In addition, popular browser extensions and social media might get you muted as well.

Swears will also mute you, with the exception of the below four words. This is the reason the four words are not censored:

The Official List of Rejected Suggestions wrote:

6.5 Censor the words {damn, crap, frick, lmao}
The Scratch Team has decided that these words are not offensive enough to be censored completely. As always, use the Report button if someone is using these words (or any others) disrespectfully. In addition, if you come across a word that is not censored, but you think it should be, please let the Scratch Team know about it through Contact Us, rather than using the comments or forums to report it.

Another reason why “lmao” in particular is not censored is stated in this post. There is also an existing suggestion that would allow you to personally censor these words, and others, so that only you cannot see them; you can discuss it on this topic.

From my experience, I believe using the "(insert something) + (insert something)'' format could get you paused.

This question is hard to answer, as sometimes you can say a word, but with slightly different context, it can be allowed. However, here are some words that I know aren't allowed:
- Almost any “really bad” swear words
- discord
- automodmute
- livestream
- any kind of word that seems like it gives personal info (like the mail Google operates, or the word of the pass)

Here are as many as I know:
  • Most curse words, apart from the ones stated in TOLORS
  • Any words with 18+ meanings
  • Names of well-known browser extensions
  • The names of and links to well-known unmoderated chat and social media sites, such as Discord, Twitter, and Tumblr

I fear that we aren't allowed and couldn't provide an accurate and explicit list of all the blacklisted words; we direct some people who want to evade the filterbot by giving them a list of words that are blacklisted, and then they would search for a bad word that isn't in the filterbot.
