## About "arrow" in BIP39

- "arrow" has 5 letters, but the first four, **"arro"**, already identify it, because **"arr"** also begins [arrange](/bip39-word/arrange/), [arrest](/bip39-word/arrest/) and [arrive](/bip39-word/arrive/).
- **"arro"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins arroser in the [French list](/french/), arroz in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), arrosto in the [Italian list](/italian/) and arroba in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
