shuf /usr/share/dict/words | head -2 | tr "\n" " "; echo
This selects two random words from the local "words" dictionary and prints them out.
Some examples of this in action:
Perseid thorny
wouldn't scow's
sugar win
archaism's scaliest
quaintness's silvers
Bermuda honeys
fortified congeniality's
Corfu's slowness's
isolationists tacitly
sweetmeat's trochee's
physicist's sprayer's
fury radiogram's
Note that the words dictionary contains profanity, so be careful with the output.
If you want to remove the words with apostrophes then use this command.
shuf /usr/share/dict/words | grep -Ev "'" | head -2 | tr "\n" " "; echo
This generates output without quite so many possessive words.
