## About "choice" in BIP39

- "choice" has 6 letters, but the first four, **"choi"**, already identify it, because **"cho"** also begins [choose](/bip39-word/choose/).
- **"choi"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins choisir in the [French list](/french/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
