About "scorpion" in BIP39

"scorpion" has 8 letters, but the first four, "scor", already identify it, because "sco" also begins scout.
"scor" is unique only within the English list: it also begins score in the French list and scorta in the Italian list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
