## About "inch" in BIP39

- It takes all four letters to identify "inch": **"inc"** also begins [include](/bip39-word/include/), [income](/bip39-word/income/) and [increase](/bip39-word/increase/).
- **"inch"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins inchino in the [Italian list](/italian/) and inchar in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
