The pattern is _E_E___: two vowels are fixed, while the remaining five slots can vary. GENERAL, FEDERAL, and DEFENSE show how often the shape appears in familiar words; RECEIVE and REVENUE offer another recognizable route through it. Of 347 entries, 49 rank among the commonest English words, so this pattern mixes everyday vocabulary with tournament-only possibilities.

7-letter words with E as the 2nd letter and E as the 4th letter

  • 347 dictionary-listed words match the fixed E positions; 338 appear in Collins, 278 in NWL2023, and 248 in ENABLE.
  • R leads the first-letter group with 106 matches, ahead of D with 55 and B with 36.
  • S is the most frequent ending, appearing on 160 matches; E is next with 40.
  • Only 49 entries meet the common-word cutoff, so many matches are specialist vocabulary.

Which first and last letters dominate the pattern?

R dominates the first position with 106 entries, while D supplies 55 and B contributes 36. That makes R the clearest starting-letter group in this pattern. If your first tile is known, compare it with those counts before narrowing the remaining slots.

At the other end, 160 words finish in S, far ahead of E at 40 and D at 31. GENERAL and SEVERAL show familiar options, but the ending still matters: an S-heavy pattern does not mean every promising word takes a plural form.

The fixed letters leave positions 1, 3, 5, 6, and 7 open. RECEIVE and REVENUE show how the same E placements can sit inside different, recognizable letter sequences.

Which matches stand out for word games?

JEZEBEL leads the listed tile scores at 25 points, followed by ZEBECKS at 24 and VEXEDLY at 21. Those are score-first choices, not everyday vocabulary; GENERAL, SEVERAL, and FEDERAL are easier to recognize but do not top the scoring list.

The dictionary counts differ: Collins includes 338 matches, compared with 278 in NWL2023 and 248 in ENABLE. Those tallies overlap, so they are not separate groups to add together. Check your game's word list before relying on a less familiar entry.

Questions people ask

Which 7-letter word with E in positions 2 and 4 scores the most?
JEZEBEL has the highest score at 25 points. ZEBECKS follows at 24, and VEXEDLY scores 21. These are score-focused choices rather than the most familiar examples; GENERAL, SEVERAL, and FEDERAL are easier words to recognize.
Are all 347 words accepted in every word game?
No. The dictionary counts differ: 338 matches appear in Collins, 278 in NWL2023, and 248 in ENABLE. A word accepted under one list may not appear in another, so check the word list used by your game, especially for less familiar entries.
Which letters most often start and end these words?
R is the most common starting letter, with 106 matches; S is the most common ending, with 160. D ranks second at the start with 55, while E is the second-most common ending with 40. Use those counts as pattern clues, not guarantees.
