Nice site. Thanks. None of the profanities showed up in the old english (atleast the most common ones that I'm familiar with) It was interesting to see lot of different output for the word 'sex' though

Eh, you just didn't know what profanities they were using back then (they do have them) and what was obscene to them. Check out Shakespearean insults or (closer still) taunting remarks in Beowulf (in the original.)
