192- When using the BIP39 algorithm, the passphrase is derived directly from an entropy of random bits,
192+ When using the BIP39 algorithm, the passphrase is derived directly from a specific number of random bits,
193193which are then padded with bits from a checksum at the end.
194194
195195For example, for a BIP39 mnemonic sentence consisting of 12 words, one has to use 128 random bits
196196appended by 4 bits of checksum bits.
197197
198198The checksum bits do not add entropy, nor are any of the initial entropy bits discarded.
199199
200- So the entropy of a BIP39 mnemonic sentence is simply the number of random bits
200+ The entropy of a BIP39 mnemonic sentence is simply the number of random bits
201201it was generated from in the first place.
