"and", "if", "for" returning "Entry word not found"

Question

It looks like "and", "if" and "for" aren't found in the word dictionary. (There may be others, but those have been a thorn in my side as I'm having to code around the "Entry word not found" response in these cases). These shouldn't be unknown words.

Ok, thanks.

My name is Ashton at Twinword. First off, thank you for your interest in Twinword!
 
As you pointed out, the word is missing. Our Twinword API has been developed to understand and detect word associations, topics, document similarity, and sentiment analysis. To achieve this, from the beginning, we’ve decided to focus on content words rather than functional words such as ’since’ , ’they’, 'should', 'could', etc.

I hope this helps you.

Sincerely,
Ashton
