About "brother" in BIP39
- "brother" has 7 letters, but the first four, "brot", already identify it, because "bro" also begins broccoli, broken, bronze, broom and brown.
- "brot" is unique only within the English list: it also begins brote in the Spanish list and broto in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
