Google speech API - only transcribe from a given set of words or ban certain words?

Is it possible to restrict the Google Speech API to only recognize from a given set of words? Alternatively, is it possible to "ban" certain words? If not, is it possible with any other speech API that supports German?

I do know that I can set hint phrases via a speech context. Still it rather recognizes a different word.

As an example, I use the API mostly for the German language. I want to recognize the word "stärker" (which is also listed as a speech context hint), though, the API mostly transcribes it to "Stärke" unless I pronounce the "r" at the end unnaturally strong. So, is it possible to prevent the speech API from transcribing that word, for instance?

Thanks in advance!

Google speech API supports set of parameters in RecognitionConfig. There is an optional boolean parameter called "profanityFilter", which filters out profanities.

No, that's not possible with Google Speech API. I don't know if it's possible with other speech recognition services.
