## About "battle" in BIP39

- "battle" has 6 letters, but the first three, **"bat"**, already identify it, because **"ba"** also begins 18 other words, among them [baby](/bip39-word/baby/), [bachelor](/bip39-word/bachelor/), [bacon](/bip39-word/bacon/) and [badge](/bip39-word/badge/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"batt"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins batterie in the [French list](/french/) and battuto in the [Italian list](/italian/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
