With B fixed at the start and R in the fourth spot, the pattern looks like B _ _ R _ _ _. Familiar choices include BEDROOM, BARRIER, and BORROWS, but many matches are less common. Only 15 entries fall within the top 25,000 English words by frequency, so this pattern mixes everyday vocabulary with tournament-only possibilities.

How many 7-letter words have B first and R fourth?

  • There are 105 matches for this seven-letter pattern.
  • Only 15 matches rank among the top 25,000 English words by frequency.
  • Collins lists 99 matches, while NWL2023 lists 75 and ENABLE lists 66.
  • The most common final letter is S, with 33 words; E follows with 11.
  • BOXROOM leads the score list at 18 points, ahead of BEDROCK and BAJREES at 16.

Which familiar words fit B _ _ R _ _ _?

Start with BEDROOM, BEARING, BARRIER, and BERRIES when you need recognizable options. BOARDER, BOARDed, and BEDROCK also match the letter positions, while BORROWS and BETRAYS offer different endings. These examples show why checking the fixed fourth letter first can narrow a rack or puzzle clue quickly.

S dominates the endings: 33 matches finish with S, compared with 11 ending in E and 10 in D. Try an S ending when the final square is open, but do not assume every familiar-looking choice is common. The frequency count is just 15, so many of the 105 matches are outside everyday vocabulary.

What are the top scores, and which word lists include them?

BOXROOM scores 18 points, and BEDROCK scores 16. BAJREES and BOURKHA also reach 16, while BARRACK, BECROWD, and BEWRAYS score 15 each. BOXROOM is the standout, but a high tile score does not make an unfamiliar word playable in every game.

The 7-letter words with B first and R fourth do not appear in equal numbers across tournament lists: Collins has 99, NWL2023 has 75, and ENABLE has 66. That difference matters when you plan a play around a rare scorer. Check your game's word list before relying on an entry, especially for a word you do not recognize.

Questions people ask

How many 7-letter words start with B and have R as the fourth letter?
There are 105 tournament-dictionary matches with B first and R fourth. BEDROOM, BEARING, and BARRIER are recognizable examples, while the full set also includes less familiar entries. The collection spans multiple game dictionaries, so an individual word may not be accepted in every version.
What is the highest-scoring word in this pattern?
BOXROOM is the top scorer at 18 points. BEDROCK, BAJREES, and BOURKHA each score 16, followed by BARRACK, BECROWD, and BEWRAYS at 15. Those are tile scores before any board-square bonuses.
Which final letter is most common among these words?
S is the most frequent final letter, appearing in 33 matches. E is next with 11, followed by D with 10. If the last position is still open in a word puzzle, an S ending is a strong pattern to test before less frequent endings.
