## About "panther" in BIP39

- "panther" has 7 letters, but the first four, **"pant"**, already identify it, because **"pan"** also begins [panda](/bip39-word/panda/), [panel](/bip39-word/panel/) and [panic](/bip39-word/panic/).
- **"pant"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins pantalon in the [French list](/french/), pantera in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), pantanal in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/) and pantofle in the [Czech list](/czech/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
