About "minute" in BIP39
- "minute" has 6 letters, but the first four, "minu", already identify it, because "min" also begins mind, minimum and minor.
- The same spelling is in the French BIP39 wordlist, but as word #1255 (index 1254), not #1131. A wallet set to French reads "minute" as 10011100110 instead of 10001101010, and decodes index 1130 as "lexique".
- "minu" is unique only within the English list: it also begins minuto in the Spanish list and minulost in the Czech list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
