## About "embrace" in BIP39

- "embrace" has 7 letters, but the first four, **"embr"**, already identify it, because **"emb"** also begins [embark](/bip39-word/embark/) and [embody](/bip39-word/embody/).
- **"embr"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins embryon in the [French list](/french/) and embrulho in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
