About "giraffe" in BIP39

"giraffe" has 7 letters, but the first four, "gira", already identify it, because "gir" also begins girl.
"gira" is unique only within the English list: it also begins girafe in the French list, girar in the Spanish list, girato in the Italian list and girafa in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
