Frequently asked questions

Where do the words come from?

The same dictionary as the other word-game tools on this site: real words, no abbreviations or proper nouns. Some words may be rare. By default words are drawn from the 5,000 most used ones, so everyone knows them. Choose "Whole dictionary" to include rare words too.

What can I use it for?

Pictionary, charades, Hangman and other party games, creative writing prompts, spelling practice and naming ideas.

Can the same word appear twice?

Not within one list. Words are picked with your browser's secure random number generator.

Can I use it for passwords?

Joining several random words makes a memorable passphrase. Use at least 4–5 words and add a number or symbol.
