The fixed pattern is _O__T__, so O occupies slot two and T slot five while the remaining positions stay open. Country, located, and counter show how readily familiar vocabulary fits. The count has a sharp caveat: only 31 entries are classed as common, leaving most of the 228-match pool outside that everyday group.

7-letter words with O as the 2nd letter and T as the 5th letter

  • 228 entries meet the fixed pattern _O__T__; the five unmarked slots can hold any letters.
  • Country, located, counter, and monster are among the recognizable examples.
  • Only 31 entries fall in the common group, so many matches are less familiar.
  • C is the leading first letter, with 42 entries; R follows with 25.

Which letters begin and end these words?

C leads the opening-letter groups: country, counted, and counter all start with C. R ranks next, with roasted and rotated among its examples. P comes third, represented by pointed and poultry.

Those clusters offer a practical way to narrow a jumble when the first letter is still unknown.

The endings are unusually close at the top: S appears last in 53 matches, D in 52, and R in 51. Located ends in D, monster in R, and nonstop in P, so the strongest ending groups still leave plenty of alternatives. Try the ending clue after checking the fixed O and T positions.

Which matches score well, and what should you check?

Mozetta and mozette top the score rankings at 18 points each; jointly follows at 17. Jointly is the more familiar play, while the leaders are less everyday vocabulary. A high face-value score does not guarantee a playable word on your board, so weigh the letters against your available squares.

Dictionary coverage differs across games: Collins includes 223 matches, compared with 169 in NWL2023 and 160 in ENABLE. For 7-letter words with O as the 2nd letter and T as the 5th letter, treat the full 228 as a broad pool, not a promise that every entry works in your game. Check your game's word list before challenging.

Questions people ask

How many 7-letter words have O second and T fifth?
There are 228 tournament-dictionary matches for this pattern. The group includes familiar words such as country, located, and counter, but only 31 entries are classed as common. The rest of the pool includes less familiar vocabulary, so a matching pattern alone does not make every entry an everyday word.
Which 7-letter O-second, T-fifth words score the most?
Mozetta and mozette lead the score rankings at 18 points each, with jointly next at 17. Those are letter scores before any board-square bonuses. Jointly is a familiar option; the top-scoring pair is much less common in everyday use.
What are common endings for words with this pattern?
S is the most frequent final letter, with 53 matches, followed closely by D at 52 and R at 51. Examples include nonstop, located, and monster. If your puzzle also reveals the last letter, those near-even groups still leave several candidates.
