The Lorem Generator is unique in that it allows you to really customize your Lorem Ipsum text.

• Generate all sorts of text: Generate words, sentences, paragraphs, as well as titles, captions, and real names.
• Change the case of the text: Make your text lower case, UPPER CASE, Title Case, or Sentence case.
• Add HTML tags and classes: Because Lorem Ipsum text is often used in web layouts, which are written in code, you can optionally wrap the generated text in an HTML tag, such as a p, div, a, etc. You can also optionally add CSS classes.
• Copy everything or just one item: Once you are happy with the generated text, click the "Copy all" button to copy all of the generated text. Or click on the clipboard icon to copy just a single item. Then paste your Lorem Ipsum text wherever you need it!

What is Lorem Ipsum?

With origins in the medieval ages, this pseudo Latin text has been in use for over five centuries for text layout.

Lorem Ipsum is dummy placeholder text used to mock up print, graphics, and web layouts. The mysterious text that looks like pseudo-English is thought to have been created by a typesetter who mixed up Marcus Tullius Cicero’s philosophical piece, De Finibus bonorum et malorum (“On the ends of good and evil").

Lorem Ipsum usually begins with:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

Its purpose is provide an illusion of content so the viewer focuses on the layout rather than the text.

Lorem Ipsum was popularized in the 1960s by Letraset, a UK company that manufactured typeface sheets, who used the passage in its advertisements for transfer sheets. Later in the 1980s, the placeholder text was brought into the digital world when desktop software publishers, like Aldus, used it in their word and graphic templates.

Today, Lorem Ipsum can be seen all over the web — in website templates, CSS libraries (such as Semantic UI), design templates, and more.

Origins

For a long time, Lorem Ipsum was thought to be nonsense text. Responding to a reader, Before & After, a desktop publishing magazine, answered “It’s not Latin, though it looks like it, and it actually says nothing. Its ‘words’ loosely approximate the frequency with which letters occur in English, which is why at a glance it looks pretty real.”

Not exactly.

The text looks like Latin because it was in fact derived from Latin, specifically Marcus Tullius Cicero’s De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum (“On the Extremes of Good and Evil”), written in 45 BC. Richard McClintock, a former Latin professor who is now the publications director at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, discovered this after looking up some of the more obscure words in the Lorem Ipsum passage.

McClintock found that one of the words in Lorem Ipsum, consectetur, was also in Cicero’s work, as was the phrase “lorem ipsum.” The line from Cicero’s De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum’s that contains lorem ipsum was:

Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit ...

which translates into:

There is no one who loves pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it, simply because it is pain ...

According to Before & After Magazine McClintock remarked:

What I find remarkable is that this text has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since some printed in the 1500s took a galley of type and scambled it to make a type specemin book; it has survived not only four centuries of letter-by-letter resetting but even the leap into electronic typesetting, essentially unchanged except for an occational 'ing' or 'y' thrown in. It's ironic that when the then-understood Latin was scrambled, it became as incomprehensible as Greek; the phrase 'it's Greek to me' and 'greeking' have common semantic roots!

Who was Marcus Tullius Cicero and why did his work become the foundation for today’s placeholder text? Cicero was a Roman statesman, scholar, and lawyer, who lived from 106 BC to 43 BC, and had immense influence on the Latin language.

Cicero’s speeches and writing style became the standard for Classical Latin, and during the Enlightenment period, intellectuals and writers determined that Cicero’s style to be the only true Latin. In fact, Quintus Cornelius Proculus, a Roman senator, said “[Cicero] is not the name of a man, but of eloquence itself.”

To understand the influence of Cicero, consider this. Johannes Gutenberg, the inventory of the printing press, first printed Donatu’s Ar Minor and the Bible. For the third book, he choose Cicero’s De officiis.

Cicero was everywhere for a long time.

McClintock believes this is likely why one of Cicero’s works became placeholder text. He hypothesizes that during the Middle Ages, a typesetter had to create a sample book to show off a variety of fonts. To focus the reader on the fonts and not the text, he decided to take a page from Latin and choose a Cicero work. The typesetter then scrambled the work to turn it into gibberish, and thus Lorem Ipsum was born.

Meaning

Does Lorem Ipsum have any meaning? “Lorem,” in fact, isn’t even a Latin word. It is the second half of “dolorem,” which means “sorrow” or “pain.”

This did not deter on scholar from taking a stab at translating the text. According to The Guardian, Cambridge Latin scholar, Jaspreet Singh Boparai attempted to translate the passage.

Below is the standard Lorem Ipsum passage that has been used since the 1500s, followed by Boparai’s translation.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.

Boparai’s translation:

Rrow itself, let it be sorrow; let him love it; let him pursue it, ishing for its acquisitiendum. Because he will ab hold, unless but through concer, and also of those who resist. Now a pure snore disturbeded sum dust. He ejjnoyes, in order that somewon, also with a severe one, unless of life. May a cusstums offficer somewon nothing of a poison-filled. Until, from a twho, twho chaffinch may also pursue it, not even a lump. But as twho, as a tank; a proverb, yeast; or else they tinscribe nor. Yet yet dewlap bed. Twho may be, let him love fellows of a polecat. Now amour, the, twhose being, drunk, yet twhitch and, an enclosed valley's always a laugh. In acquisitiendum the Furies are Earth; in (he takes up) a lump vehicles bien.

In describing his translation efforts, Boparai said his “basic challenge was to make this text precisely as incoherent in English as it is in Latin - and to make it incoherent in the same way. So, the Greek 'eu' in Latin became the French 'bien' in my translation, and the '-ing' ending in
