      select a set of words from the list

      I would be very careful doing this. It is very easy to introduce significant bias. Humans are terrible at picking random numbers.

      If you can’t find dice I would recommend:

      1. Having a computer pick random items for you.
      2. Renumber the list into binary and flip a coin 12 times for each word. (This results in a slightly shorter word list but should be string enough).
