Detailed instructions

1. Set the Number of Words field to how many invented vocabulary entries you need in one batch.
2. Open the Word Type dropdown and select noun, verb, adjective, or leave it on 'any' for mixed results.
3. Click the generate button to produce a list of invented words, each with a definition, part of speech, and etymology.
4. Review the entries and copy any words that fit your project, noting the part of speech label for correct usage.
5. Re-generate as many times as needed — each pass produces a completely new set of invented vocabulary.

Use Cases

• •Building a 20-term glossary for a tabletop RPG sourcebook in one session
• •Populating an in-world fictional dictionary as a literary or zine art project
• •Running a classroom exercise where students identify the invented term among real low-frequency words
• •Generating alien or archaic-sounding verbs to name rituals and actions in a fantasy novel
• •Creating an icebreaker game for a workshop where players vote on which definition is real

Tips

• →Generate nouns first to name core concepts, then run a verb batch to describe actions related to those concepts — this builds internally consistent fictional vocabulary.
• →If a generated word sounds too close to an existing real word, keep the etymology and rewrite the spelling slightly to differentiate it.
• →For icebreaker games, mix three generated entries with one real obscure word from a print dictionary — players rarely correctly identify the real one.
• →Copy a batch of eight words into a document and write one sentence using each — the constraint forces creative decisions that often spark larger story ideas.
• →Adjective-type outputs work especially well for naming fictional factions, diseases, or philosophical movements — the form implies classification.
• →When building a game glossary, generate in themed sessions (e.g., all nouns for one culture, all verbs for a magic system) to keep the vocabulary feeling cohesive.
