## About "erosion" in BIP39

- "erosion" has 7 letters, but the first four, **"eros"**, already identify it, because **"ero"** also begins [erode](/bip39-word/erode/).
- **"eros"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins erosivo in the [Italian list](/italian/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
