Yes, for native English speakers ... Let's assume the following, I would use the PGP wordlist and give my software for a test to a German user and let's say a Japanese user. Both of them have basic English skills. If one person then speaks the words from the PGP wordlist to the other and he / she has to write down these words you can be sure that this is *not* 100 percent error free and fast, in comparison to my approach, which requires only to learn six easy words and ten digits (which can be accomplished by a six year old kid).
