The fixed E and final K leave room for a varied middle: NETWORK, PEACOCK, SETBACK, and BEDROCK all fit. Seven matches rank among the commonest English words, while the full set draws on three tournament dictionaries. Collins includes 63 matches, compared with 48 in NWL2023 and 42 in ENABLE, so your game’s word list affects which entries are playable.
How many seven-letter words have E second and K last?
- 67 words match the pattern, with E in position two and K in position seven.
- Collins contains 63 matches; NWL2023 has 48 and ENABLE has 42.

7-letter words with E as the 2nd letter and K as the 7th letter
NETWORK, RETHINK, PEACOCK, SETBACK, and BEDROCK are recognizable choices when you need to check a candidate quickly. The opening letters are not evenly spread: 15 words begin with B, while 9 begin with R. P and S each start 7 matches.
For Scrabble points, JETPACK leads at 22. HEMLOCK, RECHECK, and HENPECK each score 18, while WEBWORK scores 19. Those totals make unusual letter combinations worth examining, but the highest score does not make a word playable in every dictionary.
Which nearby ending gives you more choices?
Keeping E in the second position but changing the final letter from K to S expands the pool from 67 matches to 1,743. That contrast makes the final K the sharper filter; changing the second letter while keeping K also shifts the count, from 67 for E to 90 for A.
Use the exact pattern first when a puzzle fixes both positions, then check your candidate against the rules of your game. The 67 7-letter words with E as the 2nd letter and K as the 7th letter are counted across tournament dictionaries, not every word list in circulation.
