About "inquiry" in BIP39
- "inquiry" has 7 letters, but the first three, "inq", already identify it, because "in" also begins 31 other words, among them inch, include, income and increase. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "inqu" is unique only within the English list: it also begins inquieto in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
