Customized EFF Diceware Wordlist

The EFF has published a great set of diceware wordlists and an informative diceware page. The wordlist can also be found in the EFF's eff_diceware repo on GitHub from which this repository is forked.

This repository contains a modified wordlist based on the EFF's 5-die "large" list.

The customized list removes:

  • hard-to-spell words,
  • words with homophones,
  • words that could make for unpleasant, unsavory, or politically insensitive passphrases,
  • some compound words that might be difficult to remember as a single "word,"
  • words with common alternative spellings,
  • words containing non-alphabetic characters, and
  • other words that seem out of place in a wordlist.

In place of the removed words, I've added mostly:

  • names of US states,
  • names of US and global cities,
  • car makes and models,
  • animals, and
  • foods.

Files:

eff_large_wordlist.txt is in the original format of the repository, and is well-suited for use with dice to create passphrases.

eff_large_wordlist-2019.txt has an additional numbered column, and this particular file will not be updated in the future -- making it useful for encrypting a passphrase with one time pad as outlined in a future blog post. (If this particular URL/filename is noted with the encrypted passphrase, you can be sure you're decrypting the passphrase correctly.)
