About "wrong" in BIP39
- "wrong" has 5 letters, but the first three, "wro", already identify it, because "wr" also begins wrap, wreck, wrestle, wrist and write. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "wrong" appears in one of the 24 official English test vectors of BIP39: vector #4 (word 12 of 12). Every official vector passes the checksum checker, and How BIP39 works shows how the entropy turns into such words. As the last word of vector #4, its final 4 bits, 0101, are the checksum of the 12-word phrase.
