Yes, the noun.equals/IgnoreCase is working. But its blocking the whole program.

I mean, even if i type " cool" or "nice" it says that my language is not allowed, what shoud I do to fix it?

I found it.

String noun = console.readLine("Enter a noun: "); if(noun.equalsIgnoreCase("dork")) { console.printf("Language not allowed, exiting. \n\n"); System.exit(0); }

I had put semi-conlon after if(noun.equalsIgnoreCase("dork"))HERE {

ANY WAY! thanks guys!
