FAQ
Q1
What is double-keigo?
Double-keigo is the excessive stacking of polite forms, e.g. 'おっしゃられる'. It should be simplified to correct keigo.
Q2
Can all NG expressions be detected?
Built-in rules cover representative cases, but not all. Human review is still needed for final approval.
Q3
Are custom NG words saved?
Custom NG words reset when the page is closed. Save your list externally if you want to reuse it.
