## About "cigar" in BIP39

- "cigar" has 5 letters, but the first three, **"cig"**, already identify it, because **"ci"** also begins [cinnamon](/bip39-word/cinnamon/), [circle](/bip39-word/circle/), [citizen](/bip39-word/citizen/), [city](/bip39-word/city/) and [civil](/bip39-word/civil/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"ciga"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins cigare in the [French list](/french/), cigarro in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), cigana in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/) and cigareta in the [Czech list](/czech/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
