可以帮你过滤粗话的app

According to a new Android and iOS e-reader app, the definition of "strong language" is somewhat broad. Clean Reader, developed by husband and wife team Jared and Kirsten Maughan after their teenage daughter expressed dismay over some cuss words in a book she read, is designed to keep users who hate naughty words from having to see them. Its tag line: "Read books, not profanity."

新研发出的一款同时适用于Android和iOS系统的电子阅读应用程序对“冒犯语言”的定义比较宽泛。该应用叫Clean Reader是由贾里德和克里斯汀•莫恩夫妇俩研发的。他们的女儿看书时被书中的脏话困扰，于是他们就设计了此应用，目的在于让用户避免看到那些污秽的词语。他们的口号：“读书，不读污。”

How it works is that you load your ebook into the app via iTunes; you can then select one of three filter levels, from mild censorship to the full monty; and the app does a find-and-replace using a database of offensive words selected by the Maughans, replacing them with "clean" versions.

你可以通过iTunes将你的电子书加载到该应用程序，然后可以从从适度审查到全部审查的三个过滤级别中选择一个，该程序运用查找和替换功能，借助莫恩事先设定的一个”冒犯”词汇数据库，从文中找出污秽词汇之后用文明的词汇来代替。

For example, body parts in the genital region of women are all turned into "bottom"; the f-bomb becomes "freak"; "breast" becomes "chest", which at least is relatively analogous; "Jesus" becomes "gee" (which is actually a euphemistic corruption of "Jesus"); "Oh my God" becomes "Oh my goodness"; "whore" becomes "hussy"; "bitch" becomes "witch" (which could get somewhat confusing if the book actually discusses dogs).
