Probability of finding a list or 24 words another one used (from your list of english words) #3

You have 2040 words into your english word list. = n There are 24 words chosen randomly. = r

The probability or getting an exact match someone else used is 1/n!/(n-r)! = (n-r)!/n! = (2040-24)!/2040!= 4.2448309537395867402991566875459e-80

I think this percent is too big, you must increase word list.
