## About "album" in BIP39

- "album" has 5 letters, but the first three, **"alb"**, already identify it, because **"al"** also begins 14 other words, among them [alarm](/bip39-word/alarm/), [alcohol](/bip39-word/alcohol/), [alert](/bip39-word/alert/) and [alien](/bip39-word/alien/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"albu"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins albume in the [Italian list](/italian/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
