## About "never" in BIP39

- "never" has 5 letters, but the first three, **"nev"**, already identify it, because **"ne"** also begins 14 other words, among them [near](/bip39-word/near/), [neck](/bip39-word/neck/), [need](/bip39-word/need/) and [negative](/bip39-word/negative/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"neve"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins neveu in the [French list](/french/), nevera in the [Spanish list](/spanish/) and neve in the [Italian list](/italian/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
