## About "random" in BIP39

- "random" has 6 letters, but the first four, **"rand"**, already identify it, because **"ran"** also begins [ranch](/bip39-word/ranch/) and [range](/bip39-word/range/).
- **"rand"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins randagio in the [Italian list](/italian/) and rande in the [Czech list](/czech/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
