The pattern leaves only 30 tournament-dictionary entries, and their endings cluster sharply: S, D, and N cover most of the group. REVOKED and REBUKED are familiar examples, while less common forms such as MEDAKAS and BEINKED fill out the options. The available word-game dictionaries do not all accept the same set, so check your game's list before playing an unfamiliar entry.

At a glance: the E-and-K pattern

  • There are 30 matching words across the tournament dictionaries counted here.
  • REVOKED, DECOKED, and REWAKED lead the scoring list at 15 points each.
  • R begins 17 of the entries, making it the clear front-runner.
  • S, D, and N are the most common final letters, with 10, 8, and 7 words.

Which letters start and end these words?

R starts 17 of the 30 matches; B is a distant second with 6. That makes REVOKED, RETAKEN, and REBUKED strong places to scan when you know the first letter is R. D, M, and P each start just 2 entries, while H starts only HEARKEN.

The endings are less one-sided. Ten words finish in S, eight in D, and seven in N; just four end in R and one in T. That means a known final S narrows the pattern to a third of the list, while a final T points to BETAKET? No: the sole T-ending match is RETAKET? The examples do not establish that spelling, so use the matching word list to verify endings.

How should you use 7-letter words with E as the 2nd letter and K as the 5th letter?

For a board play, start with familiar candidates such as REVOKED, REMAKES, and REBUKED, then check the word list your game uses. Collins counts 30 matches, while ENABLE and NWL2023 each count 27; an entry accepted in one may not work in another.

The high scores come from K and other valuable letters: REVOKED, DECOKED, and REWAKED each score 15. Yet score alone does not make an entry playable, and only one match is classed as common. Wordle is not a route for this pattern: it has no matching answers or allowed guesses. 7-letter words with E as the 2nd letter and K as the 5th letter are better treated as a word-game pattern clue than a Wordle search.
