Seven-letter words starting with F and D sixth patterns
A FOR- opening gets you to FORBIDS, FORBADE and FORBODE, while FRIENDS offers a familiar route with a different fourth letter. With so few candidates, memorizing one family is not enough: the final tile helps, and S/E cover 13 of the 15 words.
FAZENDA leads scoring at 20 points; FURKIDS scores 15 and FLAVEDO 14. This is a narrow clue list rather than a general F-word pool, and only two words meet the common group, so expect many candidates to be tournament vocabulary.
The starting letter is already fixed, so the useful decision points are the second letter and the final square. FORBIDS and FORBADE share the FOR- opening but diverge at the end; FRIENDS gives another familiar candidate. FAZENDA reminds you that a narrow positional clue can still contain vocabulary outside everyday conversation.
The scoring gap is worth remembering for a rare-letter rack: FAZENDA reaches 20, while the next score is 15. A familiar word may be easier to place, but it is not automatically the strongest play.
A practical board check
If your open square is the last one, check S before E by a single word: those endings account for seven and six matches, leaving only two exceptions.
