## About "volcano" in BIP39

- "volcano" has 7 letters, but the first four, **"volc"**, already identify it, because **"vol"** also begins [volume](/bip39-word/volume/).
- **"volc"** is unique only within the English list: it also begins volcan in the [French list](/french/) and volcán in the [Spanish list](/spanish/), so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
