7-letter words with N as the 2nd letter and H as the 6th letter

The fixed letters leave five open positions, but this is a compact set: just 14 words qualify. The familiar INSIGHT sits beside less everyday entries such as SNEATHS and UNDIGHT. Only two words meet the common-word cutoff, so expect several unusual plays rather than a list of everyday vocabulary.

At a glance: the N–H pattern

• 14 tournament-dictionary words have N second and H sixth.
• Only 2 entries fall within the common-word group.
• INSIGHT and ANARCHY are recognizable examples.
• Six words end in T, the most frequent final letter.
• ANARCHY, GNOCCHI, SNATCHY, and SNITCHY each score 15 points.

Which 7-letter words have N second and H sixth?

Start with the most familiar matches: INSIGHT and ANARCHY. GNOCCHI also fits, along with ENLIGHT, though the remaining choices include rarer forms such as ENOUGHS, UNRIGHT, and INFIGHT. The shared letter pattern is exact: N occupies position two, and H occupies position six.

Six entries end in T, including INSIGHT, INFIGHT, and UNRIGHT; S and Y each close three words. The less common endings are I and O, represented by GNOCCHI and UNMACHO. If a crossing letter rules out T, check the S and Y endings next.

SNATCHY and SNITCHY differ by one vowel and both score 15, so a rack holding either A or I can play for the same value.

What stands out in scoring and dictionary coverage?

ANARCHY, GNOCCHI, SNATCHY, and SNITCHY lead the scoring group at 15 points apiece. INFIGHT and UNMACHO score 14. Those values make the unusual consonant combinations worth examining, but the top score alone does not settle a play: board multipliers and your available rack change the result.

Collins lists all 14 matches, while ENABLE and NWL2023 each include 9. That gap matters in North American games, where a Collins-only answer can be rejected. Only 2 matches meet the common-word cutoff, so check your game's word list before relying on obscure forms such as SNEATHS.
