## About "general" in BIP39

- "general" has 7 letters, but the first four, **"gene"**, already identify it, because **"gen"** also begins [genius](/bip39-word/genius/), [genre](/bip39-word/genre/), [gentle](/bip39-word/gentle/) and [genuine](/bip39-word/genuine/).
- **"gene"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins gene in the [Italian list](/italian/), generoso in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/) and genetika in the [Czech list](/czech/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
