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

The pattern leaves the first and middle positions open, but every answer closes with T. ACCOUNT and SCARLET stand out as recognizable entries; ACQUEST and ACQUIST are better known here for their tile value than everyday use. Because only 2 matches count as common by the frequency cutoff, treat the remaining options as a game-list search rather than ordinary vocabulary.

7-letter words with C second and T seventh

• All 19 matches place C second and T seventh, with no alternate final letter in this pattern.
• ACCOUNT and SCARLET are familiar anchors; each makes the fixed C-to-T frame easy to spot.
• Only 2 matches meet the common group: ACCOUNT and SCARLET.
• Collins accepts 18 matches, NWL2023 accepts 12, and ENABLE accepts 11; dictionary memberships overlap.

Which C-and-T pattern words score highest?

ACQUEST and ACQUIST tie for the top score at 18 points each. ACCOMPT follows at 15, while OCCIPUT, ICKIEST, ICKLEST, and ECOGIFT each score 13. That gives you two premium-Q choices before the next score drops by 3 points.

Both leaders contain Q, worth 10 points in standard English-language Scrabble, and C, worth 3. Their other letters contribute 5 points combined, bringing either word to 18 before board premiums. Both begin ACQ and end ST, making the shared frame easy to remember when scanning a rack.

Compare the one-vowel difference before choosing; a bonus square matters more than forcing a cramped play.

Are these words common in everyday play?

Only ACCOUNT and SCARLET fall within the common-word cutoff; the other candidates sit outside the top-25,000 frequency band. That split is the practical catch: the pattern yields a short answer set, but most options won't come quickly from everyday speech. Start with the familiar pair, then check ACROBAT, ICEBOAT, or OCULIST against your rack.

Dictionary coverage also varies. Collins includes 18 matches, NWL2023 includes 12, and ENABLE includes 11, so an entry accepted in one tournament list may fail in another. The 19-match total counts words present in at least one of those dictionaries, not words shared by all three.
