About "rival" in BIP39

  • "rival" has 5 letters, but the first four, "riva", already identify it, because "riv" also begins river.
  • The same spelling is in the French BIP39 wordlist, but as word #1672 (index 1671), not #1494. A wallet set to French reads "rival" as 11010000111 instead of 10111010101, and decodes index 1493 as "placard".
  • "riva" is unique only within the English list: it also begins riva in the Italian list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
