## About "cabin" in BIP39

- "cabin" has 5 letters, but the first four, **"cabi"**, already identify it, because **"cab"** also begins [cabbage](/bip39-word/cabbage/) and [cable](/bip39-word/cable/).
- **"cabi"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins cabine in the [French list](/french/), cabina in the [Spanish list](/spanish/) and cabide in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
