## About "detect" in BIP39

- "detect" has 6 letters, but the first four, **"dete"**, already identify it, because **"det"** also begins [detail](/bip39-word/detail/).
- **"dete"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins detener in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), detersivo in the [Italian list](/italian/), detentor in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/) and detektiv in the [Czech list](/czech/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
