## About "portion" in BIP39

- "portion" has 7 letters, but the first three, **"por"**, already identify it, because **"po"** also begins 18 other words, among them [poem](/bip39-word/poem/), [poet](/bip39-word/poet/), [point](/bip39-word/point/) and [polar](/bip39-word/polar/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"port"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins portique in the [French list](/french/), portal in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), portata in the [Italian list](/italian/) and porta in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
