    No. Words are just easier to remember. It’s about probability. If you only use lower characters, it’s 1 in 26, with upper case 1 in 52, with nunbers 1 in 62. With weird chars, I don’t know. If you now take one english 6 char word, and compare it to a random string with 6 chars. Which one is more secure? But, if you compare 6 characters with 6 words, then it’s not that easy. But random chars will always be more secure if both passwords have the same size. But it might be easier for you to remember 12 words than 12 signs. The orobabikity is so low, who cares if it’s 1 or 2 quadrillion years?
