## About "divorce" in BIP39

- "divorce" has 7 letters, but the first four, **"divo"**, already identify it, because **"div"** also begins [divert](/bip39-word/divert/) and [divide](/bip39-word/divide/).
- **"divo"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins divorato in the [Italian list](/italian/) and divoch in the [Czech list](/czech/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
