lorem ipsum including "Cum" as a word?

[Jeff Kratzer]

So using the "Insert Fill Text" has resulted in an interesting occurrence of the word "Cum" being added in the text.
Using Insert Fill Text seems to repeat this occurrence frequently.

Apologies if this is in the wrong section

P.s. perhaps this could be called "lorem oopsum".

Edit: for clarification there are several reasons for this post.
1: According to what I found "cum" was not originally included with lorem ipsum so I was unsure if this was supposed to be included here.
2: Using the Insert Fill Text option is a great help and saves time except when it includes something like is mentioned and you are working on something for an audience that would not be impressed by such.
Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be an option for removing given words from the Insert Fill Text option and you cannot edit the filler text so you then have to go get it from somewhere else.
Its not the end of the world by any means however it is ultimately more time consuming.

The filler text is just scrambled Latin and cum is a valid preposition in Latin. If you find it distracting, you can add your own filler text in Settings.

This is where the designer should step in. It's not the program's fault that Latin has words that have very different meanings in English.

Edit: There are other Lorem Ipsum-style dummy text generators out there. But if I'm honest, the same problem may very well occur again under different circumstances. Language is a controversial subject these days.

It's not actually correct to say that "cum" has a different meaning in English, unless it's being used as slang, which is also true of many other English words.

From "Grammarist": 

"The Latin loanword cum, originally a preposition meaning with, in English has come to mean plus or along with being. It usually takes the form [noun]-cum-[noun], with the two nouns denoting characteristics of a person or thing. It’s often used to describe an individual’s or thing’s contradictory or surprising characteristics—for example, “Jimmy is a hunter-cum-animal-activist.”

Like many Latin loanwords, cum may be either italicized or unitalicized. We usually stop italicizing them when they are well established in English, and cum has been around for centuries, so it’s not necessary to italicize it. Some writers do italicize it, however, to make it clear they’re using the Latin loanword and not the vulgar slang word."

As being not a native speaker I am unsure if Jeff wanted to start a cumpain for a clean language or just thought it to be funny. A lot of fun would vanish from my life without a "good" pun, so I hope ANY language will not be tidied to nonsense by moral guardians.

@joe_lYou are hereby awarded summa cum laude, well done

We must stand up and be unite against Latin!

We have to admire the spunk of the OP in bringing this to our attention. (P.S. It also means pluck.)

At least it isn't German filler text, there could be far too many sixes in that source text.

It is perhaps worth noting that "cum" is not scrambled Latin, as well as having a non-vulgar meaning in both Latin & English.

It is perhaps worth noting that many (most?) of the individual words in standard ‘Lorem ipsum’ text are not scrambled, but (generally speaking) the sentences are scrambled/nonsensical.

I prefer it in Culture Clubs song about latin changing "Cum, a, cum, a cum, a, cum, a, cum, a cumeleon you cum and go, you cum and go ho ho ho"

While we're on the subject, Johnny come lately... oh, never mind.
