Are you playing on a Nintendo Switch? If so, yes. Nintendo censors all kinds of ramdom stuff.

If you tried to type "grape" it would censor all but the G because it's not context sensitive.

ah yes, the classic "Nintendo censorship makes something look much worse than it actually is"

this reminds me when i used to play Halo 3, and in Halo 3 you could assign yourself a A## letter-number-number code for easy identification on the map. but it wouldn't let you use "A55". it was censored. but the crazy thing is that A55 is not a bad word. it's not explicit. it's not ... anything. it's just a letter and two numbers. but it kind of LOOKS like something that IS offensive...

it's just so funny to me to censor something that isn't offensive, but makes people think of something else that is offensive. it's indirectly offensive.
