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

Fix N in the second slot and I in the sixth, and the remaining letters still produce a striking mix: everyday terms such as INVALID and INHERIT sit beside specialist entries such as GNOSTIC and INCIPIT. The first letter varies widely, but the final position clusters around C, A, and N. Dictionary coverage also matters: Collins includes all 81 matches, while NWL2023 and ENABLE include fewer.
