7-letter words with C as the 2nd letter and K as the 7th letter

  • There are 10 tournament-dictionary matches for the pattern _c____k.
  • Nine words start with S and share the opening SCH; ICEPACK starts with I.
  • Every match ends in K, as the fixed seventh position requires.
  • Four words tie for the top score of 20 points, among them SCHMICK and SCHMECK.
  • The group averages 18.3 points, with all 10 entries in Collins.

Why do so many matches begin with SCH?

The unusual opening does most of the work here: nine of the 10 words pair C in second place with the sequence SCH. The remaining match, ICEPACK, follows a more familiar shape and is the only entry beginning with I.

Several SCH words differ by just a few letters. Four of them, including SCHMICK and SCHMECK, reach the top score, while SCHTICK and SCHLOCK score 18. That makes the opening a strong clue, but the middle letters still decide which match fits your rack.

Four words, including SCHMICK and SCHMECK, lead the Scrabble scores at 20 points apiece before any board bonuses. ICEPACK scores 17, while SCHNOOK and SCHTOOK score 16. If your rack has the right tiles, check premium squares for the high-value letters.

7-letter words with C as the 2nd letter and K as the 7th letter are a narrow pattern to search, not a dependable source of familiar plays. Collins includes all 10, while ENABLE and NWL2023 each include four. Check your game's word list before building a play around an unfamiliar entry.
