Using words in your password can undermine your security aswell, you need to include some other non-English stuff or you can be very vulnerable to dictionary attacks.
Only if they're predictable words and/or in a predictable order. No dictionary attack is going to guess the exact word combination above or equivalent any faster than the preceding keyboard mashing.
Unnecessarily adding complications only makes the pass phrase harder to remember and thus less effective.
