Wikipedia states that stochastic means random. But there are differences depending on the context. Stochastic is used as an adjective, as in stochastic process, stochastic model, or stochastic simulation, with the meaning that phenomena as analyzed has an element of uncertainty or chance (random element). If a system is not stochastic, it is deterministic. I may consider a phenomena is a random process and analyze it using a stochastic simulation model. When we generate numbers using a probability distribution, these are called random numbers, or pseudo random numbers. They can also be called random deviates. See related links.
Oh, what a happy little question! The word "acquaintance" is actually a noun, not an adverb. It's used to describe someone you know slightly but don't consider a close friend. Just like painting a beautiful landscape, it's important to understand the different parts of speech to create a masterpiece of communication.
