    After much troubleshooting: The offending word is put when used in L2 (lol... but not by itself as noted here)

    try a substitution: offending word put with 'put'... AND IT WORKS !!! Problem solved

    so zaftig

    she was quite the dish
    'put' an hourglass to shame

    So the algorithm isn't as woke as one thought (lol). I use 'dish' in the most praiseworthy (albeit anachronistic) way.
