@codeshifu thanks for taking interest in the repo 😊, I'm not sure that this amendment needs to be made however.

I've done a little research and it appears to me that:

Key word is a word that is key/important. Keyword is a search-related word.

you can spell it either as one word or two; both are considered correct https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/key-word-vs-keyword.3088253/ https://ell.stackexchange.com/questions/115815/is-it-okay-to-use-key-words-as-two-separate-words-to-indicate-keywords

In the context that we are using the term we are referring to a word that is key/important not in a search context. So I would suggest this issue can be closed?
