## About "fiction" in BIP39

- "fiction" has 7 letters, but the first three, **"fic"**, already identify it, because **"fi"** also begins 19 other words, among them [fiber](/bip39-word/fiber/), [field](/bip39-word/field/), [figure](/bip39-word/figure/) and [file](/bip39-word/file/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"fict"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins fictif in the [French list](/french/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
