This pattern fixes two slots: A sits second, and H closes every entry. That leaves 108 words accepted by at least one tournament dictionary, but just 3 meet the common-word cutoff. Expect a mix of recognizable compounds and less familiar vocabulary rather than a list dominated by everyday words.
7-letter words with A as the 2nd letter and H as the 7th letter
- Exactly 108 tournament-dictionary words fit A in slot two and H in slot seven.
- Only 3 meet the common-word cutoff, so many entries are specialist vocabulary.
- Collins includes 106 matches; NWL2023 has 82, while ENABLE has 73.
- H-starting entries lead the first-letter breakdown with 13; C-starting words follow with 11.
- KAJAWAH scores 24 points; ZANYISH and LAZYISH each score 22.
Which words fit this letter pattern?
SABBATH, MAMMOTH, CATFISH, GARNISH, and VARNISH show how varied the pattern is. Several familiar entries end in -ISH, including TARNISH, HAWKISH, MANNISH, and MAWKISH; others name fish, as CATFISH, OARFISH, and SAWFISH do.
The first letter changes the feel of the search. H leads with 13 entries, while C has 11; B, M, and W each contribute 8. Starting with H does not require H in the final slot alone: HAWKISH is one example that satisfies both fixed positions.
What should you know before playing these words?
KAJAWAH tops the score list at 24 points, ahead of ZANYISH and LAZYISH at 22 each. QABALAH, MATZOTH, and ZABTIEH each reach 21. Those high values come from unusual letter combinations, so check the word against your rack and board rather than judging by length alone.
The dictionary totals overlap: Collins accepts 106 matches, compared with 82 in NWL2023 and 73 in ENABLE. The full 108-word count is the union across those tournament lists, not a count shared by every game. Check your game's word list before relying on a less familiar entry.
