Hello together,
im trying to generate a easy to remember 'token' using random words. Since the users will be german i wanted to use german words.
When I use fake('de_DE')->words(2, true) i get seomthing like eos doloribus
but when i use fake('de_DE')->realText(10) i get something like Wenn man.
Now my question is why is it using the German Text provider ONLY for 'real' methods? And if there is a way how can i change that behavior ?
It seems i found why it ignores the locale for the Lorem provider.
As it turns out they have a static words list for that. Im not sure if this is intentional or just hasn't been thought of.
Either way I think that answers my questions.
May this help whoever encounters the same problem ^^
