About "region" in BIP39
- "region" has 6 letters, but the first four, "regi", already identify it, because "reg" also begins regret and regular.
- "regi" is unique only within the English list: it also begins regir in the Spanish list, registro in the Italian list and regime in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
