About "require" in BIP39
- "require" has 7 letters, but the first three, "req", already identify it, because "re" also begins 47 other words, among them ready, real, reason and rebel. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "requ" is unique only within the English list: it also begins requin in the French list and requerer in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
