## About "front" in BIP39

- "front" has 5 letters, but the first four, **"fron"**, already identify it, because **"fro"** also begins [frog](/bip39-word/frog/), [frost](/bip39-word/frost/), [frown](/bip39-word/frown/) and [frozen](/bip39-word/frozen/).
- **"fron"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins frontal in the [French list](/french/), fronde in the [Italian list](/italian/), fronha in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/) and fronta in the [Czech list](/czech/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
