## About "rifle" in BIP39

- "rifle" has 5 letters, but the first three, **"rif"**, already identify it, because **"ri"** also begins 15 other words, among them [rib](/bip39-word/rib/), [ribbon](/bip39-word/ribbon/), [rice](/bip39-word/rice/) and [rich](/bip39-word/rich/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"rifl"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins riflesso in the [Italian list](/italian/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
