## About "odor" in BIP39

- Two letters are enough: no other BIP39 word begins with **"od"**, which makes "odor" one of only 34 words that can be told apart this early.
- **"odor"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins odorant in the [French list](/french/) and odorare in the [Italian list](/italian/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
