The pattern fixes two positions: the third letter is M, and the sixth is E. That leaves five slots open, which produce familiar choices such as SAMPLES and TEMPTED alongside less common entries. Of the 402 matches, 338 have a definition, yet just 24 are common; the counts draw from tournament dictionaries, not every word list.

The M–E pattern at a glance

  • There are 402 seven-letter matches with M third and E sixth.
  • LIMITED, COMPLEX, REMOVED, and DAMAGED are recognizable examples.
  • The final letter is S for 180 matches, D for 95, and R for 89.
  • Only 24 matches are common by our frequency measure.

Which letters finish these seven-letter words?

S ends 180 of the 402 words, D ends 95 and R ends 89, so an S ending alone leaves 180 candidates to check. SAMPLES, DAMAGES, and ZOMBIES show how varied those S-ending options can be. D and R sit close together at 95 and 89, so a known -ED or -ER ending gives a second route into the list.

Among patterns that keep E sixth, A in the third position produces 1,042 matches, while M produces 402. That contrast makes the M version notably narrower than the A version.

Scrabble scores for the M–E pattern

For Scrabble, ZYMOMES leads the high-score examples at 23 points, followed by ZYMOGEN at 22. COMPLEX and ZOMBIES each score 20. The premium letters drive those totals, but ZYMOMES is far less familiar than LIMITED or REMOVED, so a high score does not guarantee an easy play.

Collins holds 389 of these words, NWL2023 holds 288 and ENABLE holds 261. Those sets overlap, and they are not interchangeable. Just 24 are common, so check your game's word list before committing to an unfamiliar entry; begin with familiar examples, then test less obvious candidates against the fixed letters.
