SKB: It also lets you shift languages.
 
Another reason why I used two languages in my version of word-golf, was that some of the words (Lord, Nord, God, Gog, bog, dog, log, slog) existed both in English and Russian. At least half of these words (God, bog, log, slog) mean different things* in English and Russian, but sometimes different words (God and Bog) mean the same in English and Russian.
 
*Lord exists only as a British nobility title (e. g. lord Byron), dog means only "Great Dane" in Russian
