Current Behavior

When choosing a preset such as the homerow preset for colemak in the word filter mode using English 1K in custom, certain words that have different spellings in English (such as tire) change spelling (from tire to tyre), no longer using only the letters in the home row.

Expected Behavior

Words that do follow the word filter should not be present.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Go to custom mode
  2. Press change
  3. Go to words filter
  4. Choose English 1K, Home Row and Colemak
  5. Press generate and set
  6. Look for the word tire
  7. Click Ok
  8. Look and see that the word tire has been replaced with tyre

Environment

  • OS: Windows 11
  • Browser: Google Chrome
  • Browser Version: Version 131.0.6778.86 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Anything else?

This is because british english is applied when the tests are generated, not when they are filtered. I could apply the replacements when filtering, but I wonder if this might cause issues somewhere else.

There is nothing like that happening; everything is fine and working as expected. The word "tire" is "tire" after clicking okay with all preceding steps told to be followed, and the word is as it is. Let me know if it's happening somewhere else as well. Otherwise nothing needs to be change.
