## About "oxygen" in BIP39

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