2. Click on "Communicate" (the speech bubble icon at the bottom)
3. In the top right corner, click "Announce."
4. Type your message.

Make Alexa swear using routines function:

You can order Alexa to perform an action when you call it using the Routines feature. You can type out what Alexa says, just like when you use the announcement feature, so you can make Alexa swear by using altered or phonetically similar words. How to create a routine is as follows:

1. Launch the Alexa app.
2. Select "More" (the three lines)
3. Choose "Routines".
4. Pick "Create New Routine"
5. Choose "When this happens" and enter your routine's trigger there. Click "Voice," for instance, and enter "swear." then click Next.
6. Select "Add Action"
7. Select "Alexa Says"
8. Select "Customized"
