## About "almost" in BIP39

- "almost" has 6 letters, but the first three, **"alm"**, already identify it, because **"al"** also begins 14 other words, among them [alarm](/bip39-word/alarm/), [album](/bip39-word/album/), [alcohol](/bip39-word/alcohol/) and [alert](/bip39-word/alert/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"almo"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins almofada in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
