Is there any reason why "sentence" is forbidden from the MotD?
sen·tence
n.
1. A grammatical unit that is syntactically independent and has a subject that is expressed or, as in imperative sentences, understood and a predicate that contains at least one finite verb.
2. Law:
a. A court judgment, especially a judicial decision of the punishment to be inflicted on one adjudged guilty.
b. The penalty meted out.
3. Archaic: A maxim.
4. Obsolete: An opinion, especially one given formally after deliberation.
Seriously, the word filter can use some tweaking. I'm almost convinced someone is doing this on purpose because they missed that word in their school's spelling bee.
