About "north" in BIP39
- "north" has 5 letters, but the first four, "nort", already identify it, because "nor" also begins normal.
- "nort" is unique only within the English list: it also begins norte in the Spanish list and nortear in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
- "north" appears in one of the 24 official English test vectors of BIP39: vector #14 (word 3 of 18). Every official vector passes the checksum checker, and How BIP39 works shows how the entropy turns into such words.
