About "occur" in BIP39
- "occur" has 5 letters, but the first three, "occ", already identify it, because "oc" also begins ocean and october. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "occu" is unique only within the English list: it also begins occuper in the French list and occultare in the Italian list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
