This is a genuinely sparse frame: all 15 matches fall below the common-word cutoff. Eleven end in S, while the openings spread across seven letters. KOPEKS, KAPUKA and TOPEKS are useful anchors, but several entries are regional or specialist vocabulary, so a high tile score does not guarantee acceptance.

At a glance

  • 15 words fit the third-position P and fifth-position K.
  • 11 matches end in S; A, E and U make up the rest.
  • G, H, K and T each begin 3 entries.
  • QAPIKS is the top scorer at 21 points.
  • No match falls within the common-word cutoff.

What endings should you try?

S closes eleven of the fifteen matches, making plural-looking forms the main cluster: KOPEKS, GEPIKS, GOPAKS and TOPEKS.

The other endings are A, E and U.

That bias is strong enough to guide a search, but not to eliminate alternatives such as KAPUKA or MOPOKE.

Starting letters are also spread rather than concentrated.

QAPIKS leads at 21 points, with KOPEKS and KAPUKA at 16.

KAPOKS also scores 16, while YAPOKS reaches 15.

The average is 14.5, but none of the 15 entries meets the common-word frequency measure.

Treat these as specialist plays and confirm your game’s word list before relying on them.

Tip

Because 11 matches end in S, test that finish first; keep the three vowel endings in mind when the rack rules them out.

Questions people ask

Which ending occurs most often?
S appears last in 11 of the 15 matches. KOPEKS, GEPIKS and TOPEKS illustrate that group, while KAPUKA, MOPOKE and HAPUKU account for other endings.
What is the highest score available?
QAPIKS leads at 21 points. KOPEKS and KAPUKA each score 16, followed by YAPOKS at 15. Tile score alone does not settle when a particular game accepts an uncommon entry.
Are common words available in this pattern?
None of the 15 matches meets the common-word frequency measure. The entries are specialist or regional vocabulary, so a familiar-looking arrangement should still be checked in the game’s chosen word list.
