## About "search" in BIP39

- "search" has 6 letters, but the first four, **"sear"**, already identify it, because **"sea"** also begins [sea](/bip39-word/sea/), [season](/bip39-word/season/) and [seat](/bip39-word/seat/).
- Its first letters also spell another BIP39 word, [sea](/bip39-word/sea/). Write "search" out in full: cut short, it turns into a different valid word.
