## About "orange" in BIP39

- "orange" has 6 letters, but the first three, **"ora"**, already identify it, because **"or"** also begins 8 other words, among them [orbit](/bip39-word/orbit/), [orchard](/bip39-word/orchard/), [order](/bip39-word/order/) and [ordinary](/bip39-word/ordinary/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- The same spelling is in the [French BIP39 wordlist](/french/), but as word #1388 (index 1387), not #1247\. A wallet set to French reads "orange" as **10101101011** instead of **10011011110**, and decodes index 1246 as "migrer".
