The game is Word Cookies by Bitmango. I contacted them but haven’t heard back. I’m guessing it was just an oversight, but it still pissed me off.
All I can think of is
“A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido”
Get ready for more of this as companies start leaning more heavily on trash AI.
I very much doubt this is the result of AI, as much as somebody not checking the dictionary they imported into their game. Kinda like that Hello Kitty dictionary’s… concerning definition of “necklace”.
Okay but what does mulatto mean?
Someone with mixed African and European ancestry.
Etymologically it’s rather nasty: the word was coined in either Spanish or Portuguese as “mulato”, as a reference to mules (“mula” - horse x donkey hybrid).
In Portuguese it seems to me that this association faded away. However, I’m going to take a guess and say that the word is probably a slur in English, so not something that you want to use for its meaning.
It’s archaic enough that it’s probably not a slur, or at least not a particularly bad one. Archer got away with using this as his ringtone.
Thanks for the info - my guess was wrong then.
No it wasn’t. It’s a backwards and weird word.
I mean, it’s a word isn’t it?
The N-word is a word too. Should it be in a list of words you are supposed to figure out to pass a level in a word game?
Takes a bold man to play that word. Would be funny seeing people sweat to play it.
There’s letters n i g g r on the table

E
“uhh, mmmm, I… I got nothing”
“My turn! I’ll play E. NIGG…!”
“BOBBY NO!”

I’d say their definition is worse than the word itself
