    Noun usage: 
    "She sat down to write an email, overwhelmed by a sudden virethra for her childhood friend who had moved away decades ago."  
    
    Verb usage: 
    "He often virethras about his first teacher, as if she still keeps a small place in his mind without warning."  
    
    Abstract context:

        That’s a reasonable critique.

        The point is that it’s trivial to come up with new words. Put that same prompt into a bunch of different LLMs and you’ll get a bunch of different words. Some of them may exist somewhere that don’t exist. There are simple rules for combining words that are so simple that children play them as games.

        The LLM doesn’t actually even recognize “words” it recognizes tokens which are typically parts of words. It usually avoids random combinations of those but you can easily get it to do so, if you want.
