The fixed pattern looks like __e__n_. Familiar matches include FEELING, OPENING, and WEEKEND, but the full set ranges well beyond everyday vocabulary. Most end in G, and the dictionary totals differ: Collins has more matches than NWL2023 or ENABLE. Use the final letter and opening letter to narrow your search quickly.

7-letter words with E as 3rd and N as 6th: quick facts

  • The pattern has 234 words found in at least one tournament dictionary.
  • Collins includes 228 matches; NWL2023 includes 159 and ENABLE includes 148.
  • A total of 139 end in G, compared with 39 ending in S.
  • P is the most common first letter, with 32 matches; S follows with 31.
  • There are 29 common words and 188 words with definitions.

Which letters and endings narrow the pattern fastest?

Start with the last letter: 139 of the 234 matches end in G. Familiar examples such as MEETING, FEELING, and OPENING show how often an -ing ending fits these fixed positions. S is a distant second, with 39 words.

For a starting-letter clue, try P or S first: they account for 32 and 31 matches. The contrast with nearby patterns is striking: changing the sixth letter from N to E, while keeping E third, raises the count to 752.

Do these matches make practical game plays?

Everyday words such as PRESENT, PREVENT, and WEEKEND are easier to recognize than many entries in the full set. Only 29 are common by frequency, despite 188 having definitions, so a pattern match is not automatically a familiar play.

For a high Scrabble tile score, ZEEDONK leads at 21 points; FEEZING and HEEZING score 20 each. Those standouts are much less familiar than MEETING or FEELING, so check your game's dictionary before committing to an unusual word. The dictionary totals overlap rather than forming separate groups.

Which dictionary has the most words matching this pattern?
Collins has the most, with 228 matches; NWL2023 has 159 and ENABLE has 148. Those totals overlap because a word can appear in more than one dictionary, so they should not be added to get the overall count.
