About "bachelor" in BIP39

  • "bachelor" has 8 letters, but the first four, "bach", already identify it, because "bac" also begins bacon.
  • "bach" is unique only within the English list: it also begins bache in the Spanish list, bacharel in the Portuguese list and bachor in the Czech list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
