With N locked into position three and R into position six, five other letters remain open. Familiar choices include CENTURY, CONCERN, CONCERT, VENTURE, and CONVERT, while FINGERS and WINNERS show the strong pull toward plural endings. The pattern covers ordinary vocabulary as well as specialist plays, but the biggest score belongs to a much less familiar entry.

7-letter words with N as the 3rd letter and R as the 6th letter

  • The pattern has 315 matches across the tournament dictionaries.
  • 50 matches are common by our frequency measure.
  • Collins includes 307 matches, NWL2023 has 261, and ENABLE has 236.
  • ZANJERO leads the scoring list at 23 points.
  • 201 matches end in S, compared with 25 that end in Y.

Which matches are easiest to recognize?

Only 50 of the 315 matches meet the common-word cutoff. CONCERN, CENTURY, CONCERT, and VENTURE are strong first checks because they read naturally and fit the fixed letters without unusual spellings.

Starting letters narrow the scan further: C begins 39 matches, S begins 31, and T begins 27. P follows with 25, then M with 23. Try C first when the opening tile is unknown; it leads every other starting letter in this pattern.

The final tile is another useful clue. WINNERS, FINGERS, RANGERS, and DANCERS show the frequent S ending. There are 201 such matches, while only 25 end in Y, so an S-shaped option is worth checking early.

Which pattern words score the most?

ZANJERO scores 23 points before board premiums, topping the listed candidates. CONJURY follows at 19, while JUNKERS, PANZERS, JANKERS, and JINKERS each score 18. The contrast is striking: familiar words such as CONCERN are easier to spot, but unusual letters drive the highest rack scores.

Dictionary coverage matters for specialist plays: Collins contains 307 matches, while NWL2023 contains 261 and ENABLE contains 236. A word accepted in one game may not be accepted in another, so check your game's word list before committing to an unfamiliar candidate.
