About "mandate" in BIP39
- "mandate" has 7 letters, but the first four, "mand", already identify it, because "man" also begins man, manage, mango, mansion and manual.
- Its first letters also spell another BIP39 word, man. Write "mandate" out in full: cut short, it turns into a different valid word.
- "mand" is unique only within the English list: it also begins mandater in the French list, mando in the Spanish list, mandorla in the Italian list, mandato in the Portuguese list and mandle in the Czech list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
