How can you cut down 662 candidates?

Tip

When the candidate space feels broad, test a likely final D first; that ending covers 204 of the 662 matches.

D is the leading final letter

The ending distribution is unusually concentrated: D accounts for 204 candidates, followed by S at 144 and R at 125. Familiar examples include WORKED, TURNED and AGREED among the D group, with FORCES and SERIES illustrating S. Starting letters still vary widely.

Even with 662 candidates, position filtering stays concrete: R must occupy the third slot and E the fifth. Familiar words such as MARKET and SCREEN sit in the same pool as specialist vocabulary. A known ending can narrow the search quickly, especially when D is available.

The common-frequency subset is substantial at 111, yet it is still a minority of the full pool. Start with known words, then use the ending counts to test less familiar candidates.

Two words tie at 19 points

JARVEY and FORFEX tie for the highest score at 19, followed by JERKED at 18. The everyday words MARKET and FORMER are easier to recognize, but the uncommon scorers can matter in tile games. Check your game’s word list before banking on one.

The common examples include several high-frequency endings: SERIES and FORCES end in S, while WORKED and TURNED end in D. CAREER ends in R. That variety gives a strong clue-solving route: preserve the fixed R and E, then test the final letters against crossing tiles.
