About "journey" in BIP39
- "journey" has 7 letters, but the first three, "jou", already identify it, because "jo" also begins job, join, joke and joy. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "jour" is unique only within the English list: it also begins journal in the French list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
