## About "cute" in BIP39

- "cute" has 4 letters, but the first three, **"cut"**, already identify it, because **"cu"** also begins 10 other words, among them [cube](/bip39-word/cube/), [culture](/bip39-word/culture/), [cup](/bip39-word/cup/) and [cupboard](/bip39-word/cupboard/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"cute"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins cutelo in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
