About "differ" in BIP39

"differ" has 6 letters, but the first three, "dif", already identify it, because "di" also begins 26 other words, among them diagram, dial, diamond and diary. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
"diff" is unique only within the English list: it also begins différer in the French list and diffuso in the Italian list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
