Alexa routines...
4So, I just learned that Alexa won’t say “dickhead” though she will say “dick (pause) head”…
I created an Alexa routine so that when I say, “Alexa, fuck off and die” she responds, “You first, dickhead!” but instead she says “You first (beeeeeep).”
If I change her response to “You first, dick head” she says it, but the pause between “dick” and “head” makes her sound rather stupid, like she cannot think of a good response.
Does anyone know if there is a way to get Alexa to use the entire English language instead of only a portion of it?

You and Alexa may have reached a censorship imp***e.
You have to recruit Samuel Jackson.
Can you try something like dikhed?
@medz it pronounces “dikhed” about like “deet”
I tried several other spellings but none work as well as “dick head”
Not what you specifically asked but maybe consider using a substitute for dickhead. Do you know any? Substitute their name instead. If you have children, you could make it fun and educational by using glans penis instead which is the anatomical term for the head of the dick (which I assume you define as penis and not private investigator).
@elimanningface Hmmm… an interesting workaround… while this would work to some extent, I’d like something generic if possible.
One of my Google Home routines ends with “This shit is locked down, boss.” But like Alexa, Google was censoring “shit”, substituting a beep.
My solution was to substitute a very similar sounding word. In my case, I used “chit”. In context, it’s convincing enough. Especially since the word follows a word with a trailing “s” sound.
