I am trying to recover to Mycelium Electrum-created wallet with 12 seed words. First word went well. Second word is English but Mycelium doesn't have it in embedded dictionary and therefore I can't enter this second word neither any remaining words.

What is wrong? Is it impossible to recover foreign wallet. Or am I simply can't find how to tell Mycelium that this is the word and I'm entering another one.

Mycelium uses BIP44 standard which dictionary and derivation path differ from electrum,so..you can't import the seed

However you can export the xprv from one wallet to another so you can spend the coins on both devices,i'm guessing you want to have a wallet which would sync on both pc and a mobile device(android)...right?

Thanks for the explanation.

I didn't really cared about sync. Rather hoped to migrate without doing transaction(s).

well..you can still export your private keys or xprv if you still want,you just need to scan the qr code from your pc(inside electrum for private keys),with the words you're gonna need something additional aside electrum to generate the xprv key

can't get into details since i need to go to work
