Are you trying to delete the line containing the word(s) or trying to delte the words only.
sed 's/yourword//g' yourfile > newfile - To delte the words only
sed 's/yourword/d' yourfile > new file - to delte the line containing the words
Use - s/firstword.*secondword//g - For matching two words.
Hope this is useful.

Note that this game involves a large and varied word list, some of which may be considered inappropriate for children. You can edit the
file containing the word list if you wish to remove words from your game. The location of this file varies by platform.

It supports the following options. Each line must be in the format 'option = value'.
