The word am (unfortunately) is in the dictionary for language tr. By not being able to select a specific language when checking, it would mark any string containing a I am as profane, which makes it pretty much unusable for the English language :( I would propose to remove this word - or add an option to specify the language you want to filter. I have solved this by making my own copy of the dictionary and removing it.

I think we need 2 helper methods to extend the dictionary during runtime while keeping the default dictionary similar to https://www.npmjs.com/package/bad-words

->removeWords(['am']);
->addWords(['fucker']);
