7-letter words with C as the 3rd letter and T as the 7th letter

The pattern fixes C in position three and T at the end, while the other five letters can vary freely. ACCOUNT and RECEIPT make the arrangement easy to spot, but only 12 matches meet the common-word cutoff. The full set includes less familiar entries too, so a promising fit may not appear in every game's dictionary.

7-letter words with C third and T seventh

• The combined tournament-dictionary count is 79; source counts overlap rather than add up.
• Collins includes 77 matches, NWL2023 has 58, and ENABLE has 48.
• Only 12 words meet the common-word cutoff, so much of the full set is specialist vocabulary.
• ACCOUNT, ANCIENT, and RECEIPT are recognizable examples with C third and T last.
• JACKPOT leads the scoring list at 22 points; the average score across the set is 13.3.

How many matches are common words?

There are 79 matches across the tournament dictionaries. Just 12 qualify as common words, so the full set is much broader than the everyday examples. ACCOUNT and RECEIPT fit the pattern clearly: each has C in the third slot and T in the seventh.

ANCIENT is another familiar fit, while COCONUT and COCKPIT show how varied the middle letters can be. The first letter varies as well: R begins 11 matches, B begins 10, and A begins nine. The ending, by contrast, never varies here; every match ends in T.

Which match scores highest?

JACKPOT tops the scoring list at 22 points. Its J and P give it a stronger base than everyday fits such as ACCOUNT, making it a standout when you can place it. The 13.3 average score shows that this set has plenty of solid tile values beyond its leader.

PICQUET scores 20, and EXCERPT scores 18, but those less familiar options are not interchangeable across game dictionaries. Collins has 77 matches, compared with 58 in NWL2023 and 48 in ENABLE; the overlapping counts describe separate lists, not extra words to combine.
