## About "bright" in BIP39

- "bright" has 6 letters, but the first four, **"brig"**, already identify it, because **"bri"** also begins [brick](/bip39-word/brick/), [bridge](/bip39-word/bridge/), [brief](/bip39-word/brief/), [bring](/bip39-word/bring/) and [brisk](/bip39-word/brisk/).
- **"brig"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins brigade in the [French list](/french/), briglia in the [Italian list](/italian/) and briga in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
