## About "claim" in BIP39

- "claim" has 5 letters, but the first four, **"clai"**, already identify it, because **"cla"** also begins [clap](/bip39-word/clap/), [clarify](/bip39-word/clarify/), [claw](/bip39-word/claw/) and [clay](/bip39-word/clay/).
- **"clai"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins clairon in the [French list](/french/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
