Would it be possible to dictate a bech32 address as a list of English words?

3 One of the reason for bech32 address is: "it'easier to dictate it over the phone". Is there an algorithm to convert a bech32 address into a list of English words that would make it even easier? Something like BIP39 but inverted (address to words instead of words to seed). The dictionary used in BIP39 would be enough? How many words would be necessary at best to express an address? Probably it is better to dictate the address than 50 words but what about 25 or so?. bech32-address usability share | improve this question edited Apr 20 at 21:18 Murch ♦ 36k 27 116 341
