## About "dignity" in BIP39

- "dignity" has 7 letters, but the first four, **"dign"**, already identify it, because **"dig"** also begins [digital](/bip39-word/digital/).
- **"dign"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins digne in the [French list](/french/) and digno in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
