Which starting letters narrow the search fastest?

P starts the most matches: 28 words begin with P, compared with 19 starting with S and 10 with C. PREPARE and PREFERS show how different P-words can fit the same fixed letters.

The pattern is selective beside its closest same-length comparison: 315 words have N in the third position and R in the sixth, more than twice this group. If your third letter is certain, changing the sixth letter opens up other options; E in the third and sixth positions has 752 matches.

How should you use this pattern in a word game?

Treat the fixed letters as anchors, not as a clue to one obvious word. Try common shapes such as PREPARE, THEATRE, and VIEWERS, then consider less familiar matches like BREWERY, ICEBERG, or SPECTRE. The average score is 11.3 points, but ZOEFORM reaches 21 and BEEZERS scores 18.

The 135-word total combines tournament lists with different coverage: Collins has 133 matches, NWL2023 has 106, and ENABLE has 99. A match in one list may not appear in another, so check your game's word list before playing. 7-letter words with E as the 3rd letter and R as the 6th letter also skew toward S endings, with 72 entries there.
