The 112 BIP39 words that start with D run from #440 [dad](/bip39-word/dad/) to #551 [dynamic](/bip39-word/dynamic/) in the English wordlist: indexes 439 to 550, or **00110110111** to **01000100110** in binary. That is 5.5% of the 2048 words, the 7th-largest of the 25 letter groups.

26 three-letter beginnings are shared by two or more words; the largest is **"dis"**, with 8 words.

Read aloud, 60 pairs differ by a single sound, for example [dad](/bip39-word/dad/) and [dash](/bip39-word/dash/) or [add](/bip39-word/add/).
