About "talent" in BIP39

  • "talent" has 6 letters, but the first four, "tale", already identify it, because "tal" also begins talk.
  • The same spelling is in the French BIP39 wordlist, but as word #1848 (index 1847), not #1772. A wallet set to French reads "talent" as 11100110111 instead of 11011101011, and decodes index 1771 as "sinistre".
  • "tale" is unique only within the English list: it also begins talento in the Spanish list and tale in the Italian list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
  • "talent" appears in one of the 24 official English test vectors of BIP39: vector #17 (word 4 of 18). Every official vector passes the checksum checker, and How BIP39 works shows how the entropy turns into such words.
