## About "prepare" in BIP39

- "prepare" has 7 letters, but the first four, **"prep"**, already identify it, because **"pre"** also begins [predict](/bip39-word/predict/), [prefer](/bip39-word/prefer/), [present](/bip39-word/present/), [pretty](/bip39-word/pretty/) and [prevent](/bip39-word/prevent/).
- **"prep"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins preparato in the [Italian list](/italian/) and preparar in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
