About "avoid" in BIP39
- "avoid" has 5 letters, but the first four, "avoi", already identify it, because "avo" also begins avocado.
- "avoi" is unique only within the English list: it also begins avoine in the French list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
- "avoid" appears in three of the 24 official English test vectors of BIP39: vectors #3 (word 8 of 12), #7 (words 8 and 16 of 18) and #11 (words 8 and 16 of 24). Every official vector passes the checksum checker, and How BIP39 works shows how the entropy turns into such words.
