## About "vendor" in BIP39

- "vendor" has 6 letters, but the first four, **"vend"**, already identify it, because **"ven"** also begins [venture](/bip39-word/venture/) and [venue](/bip39-word/venue/).
- **"vend"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins vendredi in the [French list](/french/), venda in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), vendemmia in the [Italian list](/italian/) and vendaval in the [Portuguese list](/portuguese/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
