## About "stable" in BIP39

- "stable" has 6 letters, but the first four, **"stab"**, already identify it, because **"sta"** also begins 9 other words, among them [stadium](/bip39-word/stadium/), [staff](/bip39-word/staff/), [stage](/bip39-word/stage/) and [stairs](/bip39-word/stairs/).
- The same spelling is in the [French BIP39 wordlist](/french/), but as word #1810 (index 1809), not #1695\. A wallet set to French reads "stable" as **11100010001** instead of **11010011110**, and decodes index 1694 as "ruisseau".
- **"stab"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins stabile in the [Italian list](/italian/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
- "stable" appears in one of the 24 official English [test vectors](https://github.com/trezor/python-mnemonic/blob/master/vectors.json) of BIP39: vector #14 (word 16 of 18). Every official vector passes the [checksum checker](/bip39-checksum-checker/), and [How BIP39 works](/how-bip39-works/) shows how the entropy turns into such words.
