About "private" in BIP39
- "private" has 7 letters, but the first four, "priv", already identify it, because "pri" also begins 7 other words, among them price, pride, primary and print.
- "priv" is unique only within the English list: it also begins priver in the French list, privar in the Spanish list, privato in the Italian list and privado in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
- "private" appears in one of the 24 official English test vectors of BIP39: vector #15 (words 3 and 7 of 24). Every official vector passes the checksum checker, and How BIP39 works shows how the entropy turns into such words.
