The pattern is broader than a handful of words with HY or SY: it includes 895 entries, but only 12 are among the most common English words. HYPOTHESIS and HYPOTHESES show how a shared stem creates different answers, while TYPEWRITER and EYEWITNESS demonstrate that Y follows several different first letters.

- H leads the first-letter counts with 243; S follows with 173.
- S is the most common final letter, appearing in 422 entries.
- Just 12 entries fall among the most common English words.
- The average score is 19.9 points.
Which letters start these ten-letter words?
H and S together account for 416 of the 895 entries, with H ahead by 70. Familiar H examples include HYPOTHESIS, HYSTERICAL, and HYDRAULICS; SYSTEMATIC and SYNONYMOUS are recognizable S examples.
The range does not stop at those two beginnings. MYSTERIOUS starts with M, TYPEWRITER with T, and EYEWITNESS with E. For a nearby comparison, the E-second-letter group has 5,844 entries, far more than this Y pattern.
A useful solving distinction: the second letter is fixed, but the first is not. If you already know a word begins HY, test that stem separately rather than treating every Y-second match as a HY word.
How do 10-letter words with Y as the 2nd letter score?
ZYGOMORPHY tops the scoring examples at 33 points. ZYGOPHYTES and HYPHENIZED each score 31, while HYDROLYZED and ZYGOBRANCH reach 30. The unusual ZY- words stand out because high-value letters lift their totals.
Length alone does not predict a strong score: SYMPATHIZE scores 29, even though its spelling looks less unusual than ZYGOMORPHY. Compare the actual letters and their values before choosing between long candidates.
Dictionary coverage differs across games: Collins has 876 of these entries, NWL2023 has 557, and ENABLE has 433. Those totals are not interchangeable, so check your game's word list before relying on a less familiar choice.

Do all 895 words appear in every tournament dictionary?
