About "lamp" in BIP39
- "lamp" has 4 letters, but the first three, "lam", already identify it, because "la" also begins 19 other words, among them lab, label, labor and ladder. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "lamp" is unique only within the English list: it also begins lampe in the French list, lampo in the Italian list, lampejo in the Portuguese list and lampa in the Czech list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
