## About "link" in BIP39

- "link" has 4 letters, but the first three, **"lin"**, already identify it, because **"li"** also begins 16 other words, among them [liar](/bip39-word/liar/), [liberty](/bip39-word/liberty/), [library](/bip39-word/library/) and [license](/bip39-word/license/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"link"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins linka in the [Czech list](/czech/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
