The pattern looks like __P__E_, leaving four open positions around two fixed letters. Familiar matches include applies, imposed, happier, and expires, but only 27 entries rank among common English words. That gap matters in a game: a neat pattern match is not always a word your opponent will recognize.

At a glance: 7-letter words with P third and E sixth

There are 267 tournament-dictionary matches for the P-third, E-sixth pattern.
Applied, exposed, opposed, and replied are recognizable examples.
The most frequent first letter is R, with 31 matches beginning that way.
Most matches end in S, R, or D: 109, 70, and 69 words respectively.

How do these seven-letter matches vary?

The ending is unusually concentrated: S, R, and D account for nearly all the common final-letter choices. Try replies, expired, or imposed when the final tile is known; each keeps P in position three and E in position six.

The starting letters spread out more evenly. R leads with 31 words, while I has 22 and P and T each have 21. Compare that with the pattern using A in the third position, which has 1,042 matches; changing one fixed letter can reshape a search dramatically.

What should you know before playing these words?

For a high Scrabble score, zaptieh leads the examples at 21 points, while zippier and zappier each score 20. More familiar choices such as exposed score 17, so a short, recognizable play may be safer than an obscure high scorer.

Only 224 matches have a definition, and 27 are classed as common. Dictionary coverage also varies: Collins includes 264, NWL2023 includes 210, and ENABLE includes 199. The counts overlap, so do not add them together; check your game's word list before relying on a less familiar entry.

For 7-letter words with P third and E sixth, pattern fit alone does not guarantee acceptance.
