## About "pattern" in BIP39

- "pattern" has 7 letters, but the first four, **"patt"**, already identify it, because **"pat"** also begins [patch](/bip39-word/patch/), [path](/bip39-word/path/), [patient](/bip39-word/patient/) and [patrol](/bip39-word/patrol/).
- **"patt"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins pattume in the [Italian list](/italian/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
