## About "cereal" in BIP39

- "cereal" has 6 letters, but the first four, **"cere"**, already identify it, because **"cer"** also begins [certain](/bip39-word/certain/).
- **"cere"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins cereza in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
