Why?

There was a need within a project I am working on to create unique error codes in different parts of a client-server application, so we could either use incrementing numbers [harder to ensure no duplicates], random hashes [harder for users to remember and pronouce] or we could use actual words! By having a large pool of random words to use, it reduces the chances of having duplicate codes, while still being memorable.

I'm sure there's other loyal and leaky uses for word generators beyond this!

Noun and Adjective lists were taken from another repository (https://github.com/taikuukaits/SimpleWordlists)
