About "tiger" in BIP39
- "tiger" has 5 letters, but the first three, "tig", already identify it, because "ti" also begins 10 other words, among them ticket, tide, tilt and timber. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "tige" is unique only within the English list: it also begins tigella in the Italian list and tigela in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
