About "fragile" in BIP39
- "fragile" has 7 letters, but the first four, "frag", already identify it, because "fra" also begins frame.
- The same spelling is in the French BIP39 wordlist, but as word #862 (index 861), not #740. A wallet set to French reads "fragile" as 01101011101 instead of 01011100011, and decodes index 739 as "éthique".
- "frag" is unique only within the English list: it also begins fragata in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
