## About "recycle" in BIP39

- "recycle" has 7 letters, but the first four, **"recy"**, already identify it, because **"rec"** also begins [recall](/bip39-word/recall/), [receive](/bip39-word/receive/), [recipe](/bip39-word/recipe/) and [record](/bip39-word/record/).
- **"recy"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins recycler in the [French list](/french/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
