The fixed pattern is __NN___, with the repeated letters locked into the middle. RUNNING, WINNING, and CONNECT show how naturally that pair appears in familiar words. Only 23 matches rank among the top 25,000 English words by frequency, so many entries are less familiar than those examples.

7-letter words with N as the 3rd letter and N as the 4th letter

The pattern has 268 matches across the tournament dictionaries covered here.
RUNNING, WINNING, CONNECT, and TUNNELS are recognizable examples with the middle NN intact.
S is the most common final letter, with 121 matches; G follows with 41.
Collins lists 262 matches, compared with 189 in NWL2023 and 169 in ENABLE.
The average score is 9.7; JANNОCK and JONNOCK lead the scoring list at 20 points.

How can you narrow the pattern quickly?

Treat the two Ns as fixed anchors, then check the first, second, fifth, sixth, and final tiles against the remaining letters. That keeps near-misses such as a word with only one middle N out of consideration.

The examples span several endings: RUNNING and WINNING finish in G, while WINNERS and BANNERS end in S. TUNNELS and MANNERS also show why checking the final tile early can shrink a broad candidate set.

Which words score most, and what should you check?

JANNОCK and JONNOCK top the scores at 20 points each; JANNEYS follows at 17, while ZINNIAS scores 16. The familiar-looking pattern does not guarantee a familiar word, so a high scorer can be a much less common entry than RUNNING.

7-letter words with N as the 3rd letter and N as the 4th letter are not all equally common across game dictionaries: Collins has 262, while ENABLE has 169. Check your game's word list before playing an unfamiliar entry; only 23 matches fall in the common-word group.
