## About "april" in BIP39

- "april" has 5 letters, but the first three, **"apr"**, already identify it, because **"ap"** also begins [apart](/bip39-word/apart/), [apology](/bip39-word/apology/), [appear](/bip39-word/appear/), [apple](/bip39-word/apple/) and [approve](/bip39-word/approve/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"apri"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins aprile in the [Italian list](/italian/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
