## \u2139\ufe0f Info: Frequently Asked Questions<\/p>\n
**\ud83e\udd14 What is a Standalone Word?**
\nA standalone word is a word that is not part of another word. For example, if you have the standalone word `fort` in your standalone filter list, the word `forts` will not be flagged.<\/p>\n
**\u2753 What is a Phrase?**
\nA phrase refers to any text that consists of more than a single word. With Chat Control, you can target and filter out entire phrases to maintain the desired environment on your server.<\/p>\n
**\ud83d\udd20 How do Replacement Letters Work?**
\nReplacement letters are letters that are substituted before the message is filtered. For example, if you set a replacement of `1` with `i`, any occurrence of the number one will be replaced with the letter i before the message is filtered. This feature enhances the accuracy of your filtering system.<\/p>\n
**\u2699\ufe0f I Already Have Another Mod with a Mute Command. How Can I Prevent Conflict?**
\nNo worries! You can easily disable the mute command in the Chat Control configuration file located at `config\/chatcontrol.json` in your server folder. Simply set the `muteCommand` option to false, and after restarting the server, you won’t encounter any conflicts.<\/p>\n
