## About "chase" in BIP39

- "chase" has 5 letters, but the first four, **"chas"**, already identify it, because **"cha"** also begins 8 other words, among them [chair](/bip39-word/chair/), [chalk](/bip39-word/chalk/), [champion](/bip39-word/champion/) and [change](/bip39-word/change/).
- **"chas"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins chasseur in the [French list](/french/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
