## About "field" in BIP39

- "field" has 5 letters, but the first three, **"fie"**, already identify it, because **"fi"** also begins 19 other words, among them [fiber](/bip39-word/fiber/), [fiction](/bip39-word/fiction/), [figure](/bip39-word/figure/) and [file](/bip39-word/file/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"fiel"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins fiel in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
