## About "human" in BIP39

- "human" has 5 letters, but the first four, **"huma"**, already identify it, because **"hum"** also begins [humble](/bip39-word/humble/) and [humor](/bip39-word/humor/).
- **"huma"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins humain in the [French list](/french/) and humano in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
