## About "recipe" in BIP39

- "recipe" has 6 letters, but the first four, **"reci"**, already identify it, because **"rec"** also begins [recall](/bip39-word/recall/), [receive](/bip39-word/receive/), [record](/bip39-word/record/) and [recycle](/bip39-word/recycle/).
- **"reci"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins recinto in the [Italian list](/italian/) and recibo in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
