How random are the words?

Words are drawn by randomly shuffling the filtered word list and selecting from it. The source dictionary is ENABLE — the Enhanced North American Benchmark Lexicon, a well-regarded general-purpose English word list used by many word game apps. Every word returned is a real, valid English word (no nonsense strings).
