You might need some filtering. I got the following output for my 7th or 8th try (I did s/ig/*/g because I hate typing this): noun. n*gerbar n*·ger·bar a bar from which the beer and liquor are sold "that party got a whole lot cooler this week with a n*gerbar refreshment" a word that does not exist; it was invented, defined and used by a machine learning algorithm.

Has it generated a word for the noise you make after sipping a cup of tea or a cold drink? The “ahhhh” sound. I nominate the word “fonce” if it’s not already taken.

“The pair sat foncing so noisily over their hot cups of tea that it drove everyone else from the room”

does the definition exist or is that machine-generated too?

Both definitions and words are machine generated!
