The second-letter P pattern spans several different opening letters, but S and A lead the group. You’ll see everyday terms such as APPLICATION and APPOINTMENT alongside specialist vocabulary. The collection includes entries accepted by at least one tournament dictionary, so a word’s presence here does not guarantee acceptance in every game.

At a glance: P in the second position

The pattern contains 615 eleven-letter entries accepted by at least one tournament dictionary.
S is the most frequent first letter, with 296 words; A follows with 128.
OPPORTUNITY, APPLICATION, and APPROPRIATE are familiar examples.
EPOXIDIZING scores 31 points, the highest score among the examples provided.
The average score is 17.7, while 28 entries rank among common English words.

Which first letters dominate this group?

S leads with 296 words, more than twice A’s 128; E contributes 105, and O contributes 56. That spread means the pattern is not just a list of words beginning with “sp.”

Several recognizable entries start with A: APPLICATION, APPROPRIATE, APPOINTMENT, and APPROACHING. O brings OPPORTUNITY and OPERATIONAL, while S supplies SPECIALIZED, SPECTACULAR, and SPECULATION. Those examples give you distinct starts to test when a puzzle fixes the second letter but leaves the first open.

Only 28 entries rank among the 25,000 most common English words, so many matches are likely to be specialist or less familiar terms. Treat the list as a candidate pool, not a promise that every entry will suit an everyday clue.

Scoring 11-letter words with P as the 2nd letter

EPOXIDIZING leads the scoring examples at 31 points; EPIZEUXISES scores 29, and EPISCOPIZED scores 27. The high scores come from unusual letter combinations, not simply from having eleven tiles. Check the spelling carefully before relying on an unfamiliar scorer.

The dictionary counts differ: 590 entries appear in Collins, 349 in NWL2023, and 292 in ENABLE. These totals overlap, so they should not be added together. A word accepted by Collins might be absent from the North American NWL2023 list; check your game’s word list before playing an obscure choice.

For a pattern clue, lock in the second-position P first, then use the starting letter and known word endings to narrow the candidates. This is a better filter than treating every eleven-letter match as equally plausible.

Questions people ask

How many 11-letter words have P as the second letter?

There are 615 eleven-letter words with P in the second position. APPLICATION, OPPORTUNITY, and SPECTACULAR are recognizable examples, while many other entries are less common. The collection includes words found in at least one tournament dictionary, not necessarily every game’s dictionary.

Which 11-letter word with P as the second letter scores highest?

EPOXIDIZING is the highest scorer among the examples, at 31 points. EPIZEUXISES follows at 29, with EPISCOPIZED at 27. These are tile scores before any board bonuses, so the points you earn during play depend on placement.

Are all these P-second-letter words common?

No. Only 28 of the 615 entries rank among the 25,000 most common English words. OPPORTUNITY and APPLICATION are familiar, but the collection also includes specialized vocabulary such as SPHYGMOLOGY. Check your game’s dictionary when an unfamiliar word matters.
