The _L_N___ pattern has more familiar vocabulary than most narrow letter frames: PLANNED, ILLNESS, BLANKET, and PLANETS all fit. There are 146 matches, with 22 meeting the frequency cutoff. That larger everyday share makes this pattern easier to search from memory than many seven-letter combinations.

At a glance on this pattern

  • 146 tournament-dictionary matches fit the fixed positions.
  • 22 qualify among the top 25,000 English words by frequency.
  • PLANXTY scores 19 points, the group's top base value.
  • This is the most everyday-heavy set in the batch: 22 common matches, including PLANNED and BLANKET.

7-letter words with L second and N fourth

PLANXTY leads at 19 points, with BLINTZE at 18 and FLUNKEY at 17. The top scorers are less familiar than the plain entries, so a rack search can split into two jobs: find a playable everyday word such as BLANKET, then check whether a premium-letter option fits the board better.

R is the most common ending at 41 matches, followed by D at 36 and S at 30. PLANNER shows the R finish, PLANNED the D finish, and PLANETS the S finish. Those three endings cover most of the likely options, but the remaining forms include Y and E as well.

What should you know before playing?

Tip

Anchor the known tiles first, then compare the remaining letters with the exact spelling of the candidate.
