Write the pattern as _ O _ _ _ R: the second tile is O and the final tile is R. Of 382 tournament-dictionary matches, 64 rank among the most common English words; examples include former, mother, longer, wonder, doctor, and corner. Coverage is broad but uneven: Collins includes 375 matches, while NWL2023 includes 299, so a valid answer depends on your game's dictionary.

The O-second, R-last pattern at a glance

  • 382 tournament-dictionary words fit the exact O-second, R-last pattern.
  • 64 are common; former, mother, and doctor are recognizable starting points.
  • Collins lists 375 matches; NWL2023 lists 299.
  • Cozier scores 17 Scrabble points, above the set's 9.7-point average.
  • Every match ends in R, while C leads the first-letter group with 52 words.

Which first letters appear most often?

C is the most frequent opener, with 52 words; D follows at 34, then P at 29 and B at 28. Try C, D, P, then B when testing first-letter candidates.

Familiar entries show how varied the middle can be: former and mother share the ending, while longer, wonder, doctor, border, and dollar fill different starts and letter shapes. The fixed R matters: pairing the O clue with that final tile narrows the pattern.

O has more matches in this pattern than E does as the second letter: the E-second sibling has 302, compared with 382 here. A as the second letter has 441, more than either.

6-letter words with O as the 2nd letter and R as the 6th letter

Cozier, boxcar, and jobber each score 17 Scrabble points, well above the 9.7 average for this set. Those scores come from letter values; premium squares alter the board total, so a strong rack score does not guarantee a strong play.

Dictionary reach is a separate filter from pattern fit. Collins accepts 375 matches, but NWL2023 has 299; use the list that matches your game before committing a less familiar entry.

Questions people ask

How many of these words are common?
64 of the 382 matches are common by our frequency measure. Start with mother, former, doctor, or wonder; each keeps O in position two and R at the end. Other entries include less familiar vocabulary, so a clue can be easier than memorizing the full set.
Does every word appear in NWL2023?
No. NWL2023 includes 299 of the 382 matches, while Collins includes 375 and ENABLE includes 277. The total combines words found in at least one tournament dictionary, so the full set is not interchangeable with any single game's accepted list.
Which O-second, R-ending word scores well?
Cozier scores 17 Scrabble points, and boxcar and jobber also score 17. Those are tile totals before board premiums; a word on a bonus square can outscore them in a real turn. Check the letter placements before choosing by rack score alone.
