This frame puts D late but leaves two letters after it. KINGDOM, DIVIDED and YIELDED make the pattern easy to recognize, while CITADEL and BIPEDAL show different endings. The 58 matches split across a narrow top tier of familiar words and a long specialist tail.

Seven-letter words with I second and D fifth at a glance

  • There are 58 matches; 49 have definitions.
  • FIXEDLY scores 21, the top value in the score ranking.
  • MIXEDLY follows at 20; JIHADIS reaches 18.
  • S ends 12 words, with R and Y close behind at 11 and 10.

Which examples fit common clue shapes?

KINGDOM and CITADEL are nouns with a clear ending after the fifth-position D. DIVIDED, YIELDED and DIVIDES bring a different clue pattern, while VIVIDLY and TIMIDLY are adverbs ending in -LY. These anchors help distinguish a word family from a simple letter fit.

The endings are unusually balanced for a small set: S leads with 12, R follows at 11, and Y has 10. That spread means the final letter is less decisive than in patterns dominated by one ending. Use the clue’s grammar and the crossing tiles before favoring a plural, noun, or adverb.

Are the higher-scoring forms familiar?

FIXEDLY leads at 21 points and MIXEDLY scores 20; JIHADIS is next at 18. VIVIDLY is a more recognizable option at 17, while FIEFDOM reaches 16. The top score belongs to an adverb, so do not assume a high tile value signals an everyday base word.

Seven entries meet the common-word cutoff, although 49 have definitions. That is a modest pool for quick play. Use the pattern for broader word games and crosswords, then verify any less familiar form against your game list.

A quick solving tip

Tip

Do not lock in a final S too early: it leads at 12, but R is only one behind and Y trails by just two.

What is the top-scoring word in this group?
FIXEDLY scores 21 points, just ahead of MIXEDLY at 20. JIHADIS scores 18 and VIVIDLY 17. A board’s premium squares can change the total, and the most familiar word is not always the one with the largest score.
Which ending should I try first?
