## About "since" in BIP39

- "since" has 5 letters, but the first four, **"sinc"**, already identify it, because **"sin"** also begins [sing](/bip39-word/sing/).
- **"sinc"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins sincère in the [French list](/french/) and sincero in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
