## About "dentist" in BIP39

- "dentist" has 7 letters, but the first four, **"dent"**, already identify it, because **"den"** also begins [denial](/bip39-word/denial/) and [deny](/bip39-word/deny/).
- **"dent"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins dentelle in the [French list](/french/), dental in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), dentro in the [Italian list](/italian/) and dentista in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
