MediumWord-559k
Ever heard of TinyWord? Yeah, this is a scaled up version. But whether you can call medium or not is a coin toss. MediumWord is a five-hundred and fifty-nine thousand parameter word-generator trained on seven-hundred and fifty-three thousand words. It showcases a significant boost in quality than TinyWord-134k, but still stays relatively cheap.
Architecture
MediumWord uses a scaled down version of the Qwen3 architecture.
Note: 1 attention head and a RoPE Theta of 1000 (vs Qwen3's 1,000,000) are intentional reductions for this scale. Max sequence length is 32, so positional generalization at range isn't a concern.
Training
MediumWord was trained on 753,232 unique words, 3,225,398 tokens, and 7,022,310 characters. ~660k of those words are English, while ~90k of them are Spanish. Talk about multilingual, right? Way better than GPT5. (P.S That's not true, but in our dreams, maybe).
Dataset
Hardware
MediumWord was trained on one NVIDIA RTX 2060 GPU for 1.5 epochs with a batch size of 8.

Output:
usAs you can see, the model generates both real words and plausible-looking words. For example, burry is a real word, and appurist follows a valid English agentive suffix pattern (-ist). It wasn't trained to generate real words, it was trained to generate plausible words that reflect the morphology of the English and Spanish languages.
Limitations
- It does not generate sentences, prose, code, or anything besides a single word-like sequence.
- It cannot reason or produce complex language.
- Generated words may or may not be real. The goal isn't real word generation but reflecting the lexicon and morphology of the English and Spanish languages through tiny language models.
- Output is non-deterministic. The same prompt can produce very different completions across runs.
