How it works
Words come from the classical Lorem ipsum, which is based on Cicero's "De finibus bonorum et malorum" (45 BC). They are arranged randomly into sentences.
Sentences have 6 to 16 words, longer ones with a comma, and paragraphs have 4 to 7 sentences. When you choose words, exactly that many words are generated and split into sentences.
HTML wraps each paragraph in <p>; JSON gives an array of paragraph strings.
FAQ
What is Lorem ipsum?
It is placeholder text that printers and designers have long used to show how text will look in a layout. It is scrambled Latin from Cicero, so it does not distract from the design.
Can I use it in commercial work?
Yes. The source text is over 2,000 years old and in the public domain, and the text generated here is free to use.
