We've reflected many comments about BIP39 wordlist from the community and I
think the wordlist is much better now. Specifically we removed many of
theoretically offensive words as well as we implemented algorithm for
detecting words with similar characters (cat/eat) and we resolved these
This is probably too late in the discussion, and I certainly don't
want to derail any standard being formed. But if it is controversial,
I want to offer my own suggestion.
This is a proposal I wrote a year ago, but never spent enough work to
push it as a standard:
This will probably sound stupid to most of you, but I'll say it anyway.
The aim of mnemonics is to easily remember, isn't it?
But the approach of removing offensive words is probably
counterproductive to achieving that end. These words cause a greater
emotional impact in our human moral psyches.

I think that PoW concept in your proposal is quite smart! However the

Well, I would say more retype than remember. I really don't think that
common user will
This an excellent idea, because i proposed the same thing previously.
these bip 39 mnemonics are IMO too hard to remember.
using NLP we could generate a gramatically correct sentence out of 128
completely random bits which is possible to remember. information could
be encoded in the selection of
In many iterations of editing the wordlist we made our best to pick
words which are easy to remember, still neutral. Unfortunately it's
almost impossible to exclude some words which may together create
negative co-notations.
Thankfully we removed all racist and religious words so I believe all

Feel free to come up with wordlist enhancements. That's why we put
this BIP for discussion in the first place. Three people went through
the wordlist numerous number of times and as you can
Excellent!

Getting OT...
For a while I've wanted to combine one of these mnemonic code generators
with an NLP engine to do something like output a short story as the
passphrase, even a humorous onem with the key encoded in the story
itself (remember the gist of the story and that's sufficient to

Well let's hope something like murder black people, stupid asian person or
whip african slave doesn't come up. :-) Maybe it would have been better
without the aggressive words?

Ouch.
This sounds like
We're open to changes in the wordlist. We'll accept pull request
replacing potentially offensive words by another more neutral, which
also fits all other requirements.
Putting the wordlist together is really hard job and we spent few
sleepless nights on that. By the way, words murder, black,
