## About "matrix" in BIP39

- "matrix" has 6 letters, but the first four, **"matr"**, already identify it, because **"mat"** also begins [match](/bip39-word/match/), [material](/bip39-word/material/), [math](/bip39-word/math/) and [matter](/bip39-word/matter/).
- **"matr"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins matraque in the [French list](/french/), matriz in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), matricola in the [Italian list](/italian/) and matrika in the [Czech list](/czech/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
