## About "polar" in BIP39

- "polar" has 5 letters, but the first four, **"pola"**, already identify it, because **"pol"** also begins [pole](/bip39-word/pole/) and [police](/bip39-word/police/).
- **"pola"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins polaire in the [French list](/french/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
