Is 16k really a limited vocabulary? The only reference I found online had that as the amount of vocabulary for the highest levels of language proficiency.

- tgv 5y ago16k is indeed pushing it, certainly w.r.t. generation (they'll recognize around 16k words, but won't be able to use them). And because they're never going to recall truly random words, there'll be 30 bits or less in the final passphrase. Just in case: correct, horse, staple, battery are far more frequent, and acquired earlier in life, and thus more likely to be part of a passphrase than e.g. rime, bagnio, pungently, cruse.
