Rather than tabooing certain words, learning a new language that dont contain those concepts is probably far more efficient. Many years ago I learnt Norse (ie pre-Christian scandinavian, "viking language"). It only contains one modal help verb (ie should, would, ought to, want to, can, have to) are all one word with the same meaning.

If possible ask them to leave the package outside your front door and wait a few hours before you take it in.
Just did a quick search for librarian curriculum and skimmed what came up:

Intuitively I think the main advantage of pne language in favour of another woulde be that certain ideas are more easy to articulate and/or conceptualize in certain languages. A banal example would be the connection between love, magic and music in spanish look up the ethmology of cantar, ecantando and encantador for clarification. As I only speak indoeuropean languages, it could be that the grammar of other groups of languages would facilitate certain types of thought..
