With E fixed in both positions, the pattern still covers a broad mix: 597 entries appear across tournament dictionaries. Only 68 rank among the commonest English words, while 508 have definitions. That contrast matters in a game: recognizable choices such as BETWEEN sit beside rarer words that are less likely to come to mind.

How many 7-letter words with E as the 2nd and 5th letters fit?

  • The pattern has 597 tournament-dictionary entries, with E fixed in slots two and five.
  • Just 68 are common by English word frequency, so familiar options make up a small share.
  • BETWEEN, BELIEVE, MEMBERS, PERFECT, and PERCENT are recognizable examples.
  • R begins 83 entries, ahead of B at 56; D and S tie at 50.
  • S ends 375 entries, while T is next at 85; plural forms account for familiar examples such as MEMBERS and LETTERS.

Why do so many matching words end in S?

S closes 375 of the 597 entries, just over three in five. MEMBERS, LETTERS, SECRETS, and REVIEWS show how often a plural ending lands on this pattern. When a clue also points to an S at the end, test that slot early; it sharply narrows the possibilities.

The second-position letter changes the size of a closely related pattern: A appears there in 849 seven-letter words with E fifth, and O in 755. The E-and-E pattern has 597, just above the I-and-E version at 569. A fixed pair of letters can still leave very different-sized search pools.

After S, the endings thin out: T closes 85 entries, Y closes 31, D closes 25 and E closes 21. R leads the openers at 83, so a known R start plus a final S cuts the field fast.

Which matching words score well, and what should you check?

Tip

JEEZELY leads the high scorers at 26 points; CERVEZA scores 21 and WEAZENS 19. The 597-word count combines dictionary entries, so check your game's word list before relying on an unfamiliar play.

Questions people ask

What are some common 7-letter words with E in the 2nd and 5th positions?
BETWEEN, BELIEVE, MEMBERS, PERFECT, and PERCENT are familiar examples. The pattern has 68 words classed as common by English word frequency, out of 597 tournament-dictionary entries, so most matches are less familiar.
Which word in this pattern has the highest Scrabble score?
JEEZELY is the top scorer at 26 points. CERVEZA follows at 21, while WEAZENS scores 19. These are letter-value scores, not a promise of a legal play in every game; dictionary rules differ.
Do all 597 words appear in every tournament dictionary?
No. The 597 total combines words found in at least one tournament dictionary. Collins includes 584 matches, NWL2023 includes 468, and ENABLE includes 431, so an entry accepted in one word list may not be accepted in another.
