About "mimic" in BIP39
- "mimic" has 5 letters, but the first three, "mim", already identify it, because "mi" also begins 16 other words, among them middle, midnight, milk and million. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "mimi" is unique only within the English list: it also begins mimique in the French list and mimika in the Czech list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
