## About "sentence" in BIP39

- "sentence" has 8 letters, but the first four, **"sent"**, already identify it, because **"sen"** also begins [senior](/bip39-word/senior/) and [sense](/bip39-word/sense/).
- The same spelling is in the [French BIP39 wordlist](/french/), but as word #1749 (index 1748), not #1568\. A wallet set to French reads "sentence" as **11011010100** instead of **11000011111**, and decodes index 1567 as "public".
- **"sent"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins sentire in the [Italian list](/italian/) and sentado in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
