About "narrow" in BIP39
- "narrow" has 6 letters, but the first three, "nar", already identify it, because "na" also begins naive, name, napkin, nasty, nation and nature. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "narr" is unique only within the English list: it also begins narrer in the French list, narrar in the Spanish list, narrato in the Italian list and narrado in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
- "narrow" appears in one of the 24 official English test vectors of BIP39: vector #14 (word 17 of 18). Every official vector passes the checksum checker, and How BIP39 works shows how the entropy turns into such words.
