## About "dragon" in BIP39

- "dragon" has 6 letters, but the first four, **"drag"**, already identify it, because **"dra"** also begins [draft](/bip39-word/draft/), [drama](/bip39-word/drama/), [drastic](/bip39-word/drastic/) and [draw](/bip39-word/draw/).
- The same spelling is in the [French BIP39 wordlist](/french/), but as word #599 (index 598), not #529\. A wallet set to French reads "dragon" as **01001010110** instead of **01000010000**, and decodes index 528 as "demeurer".
- **"drag"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins dragón in the [Spanish list](/spanish/) and drago in the [Italian list](/italian/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
