## About "rigid" in BIP39

- "rigid" has 5 letters, but the first four, **"rigi"**, already identify it, because **"rig"** also begins [right](/bip39-word/right/).
- **"rigi"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins rigide in the [French list](/french/) and rigidez in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
