7-letter words with J as the 3rd letter and T as the 7th letter

This is a narrow pattern: just 13 words place J in the third spot and T at the end. ADJUNCT and ADJOINT are among the more recognizable entries, while JUJUIST and KAJEPUT stand out for their scores. Collins accepts all 13; ENABLE and NWL2023 include 9 each, so dictionary coverage differs by game.

At a glance: the J-and-T pattern

• All 13 matches have T as their final letter; the pattern fixes both the third and seventh positions.
• ADJUNCT, ADJOINT, INJUNCT, and UNJOINT show several different letter combinations around the required J.
• The starting letters are spread out: A and C each begin 3 entries, while I begins 2.
• JUJUIST leads the score list at 21 points, ahead of KAJEPUT at 20.

How many 7-letter words with J third and T last are there?

There are 13 tournament-dictionary matches. The small total makes this a much tighter search than patterns led by common consonants: only 1 entry falls within the top 25,000 English words by frequency.

The starting-letter mix is unusually scattered for such a short list. A and C each account for 3 words, but no other starting letter appears more than twice. That makes a guessed first letter a risky shortcut; keep the third-position J and final T fixed while checking candidates.

Which matches are worth checking for points?

JUJUIST scores 21, KAJEPUT scores 20, and CAJAPUT, CAJEPUT, and CAJUPUT each score 18. Those unusual spellings can beat familiar-looking ADJUNCT, which scores 17.

Most of these entries are uncommon, so a memorized spelling is not the same as game acceptance. Check your game's word list before committing a high-value J to a play.

• Try JUJUIST first when comparing the highest scores.
• Keep KAJEPUT in mind as the next scorer, at 20 points.
• ADJUNCT scores 17, while ADJOINT scores 15.
• Do not assume the same coverage across dictionaries: Collins has 13 matches, compared with 9 in ENABLE and NWL2023.
