## About "tube" in BIP39

- "tube" has 4 letters, but the first three, **"tub"**, already identify it, because **"tu"** also begins 7 other words, among them [tuition](/bip39-word/tuition/), [tumble](/bip39-word/tumble/), [tuna](/bip39-word/tuna/) and [tunnel](/bip39-word/tunnel/). Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- **"tube"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins tubería in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
