The pattern fixes R in slot two and E in slot five, leaving five positions open. Its 247 entries range from familiar words such as PROJECT, PRESENT and PROTECT to less common plays. Counts differ across Collins, NWL2023 and ENABLE, so a word accepted in one game may not travel to another.

7-letter words with R as 2nd letter and E as 5th letter

  • The pattern has 247 distinct entries across the tournament dictionaries.
  • P leads the starting letters with 74 matches; G is next with 28.
  • A final S appears in 117 entries, compared with 42 ending in T.
  • 198 entries have definitions, and the average tile score is 11.
  • PROJECT, PRESENT, PROTECT, and PREVENT show familiar options that fit.

Why do the dictionary counts differ?

Collins contains 243 matches, compared with 195 in NWL2023 and 181 in ENABLE. The 247 total counts distinct words found in at least one of those lists; it does not guarantee acceptance everywhere. Only 33 qualify as common by our frequency measure, so expect less familiar and inflected forms.

Check your game's word list before building a play around a rare entry.

The fixed letters make a noticeable difference: R in slot two with I in slot five has 375 matches, while E in that slot has 247. With E fixed fifth, A in the second position has 849 matches and O has 755. Once R and E are confirmed, use the other slots to narrow your rack instead of guessing broadly.

Which matching words score highest?

WRYNECK and FRIZERS lead at 19 points each; PROJECT and TRAPEZE score 18. PROJECT is the familiar pick, while WRYNECK uses both W and Y and FRIZERS has a less common ending. These are base scores: premium squares and cross-words change the turn total.

For 7-letter words with R as the 2nd letter and E as the 5th letter, the starting letter gives another useful clue. P has 74 matches, including PROJECT, PRESENT, PROTECT, PREVENT, PROTEIN, and PROTEST. A final S is most frequent, with 117 entries.

That ending can fit plural or verb forms, but the pattern alone does not confirm a word's form or acceptance.

Questions people ask

Are all 247 words accepted in every Scrabble dictionary?
No, the matching words do not all appear in every dictionary. Collins has 243, NWL2023 has 195, and ENABLE has 181. The overall total counts distinct words found in at least one tournament list, so check the word list used for your game before playing an unfamiliar entry.
Which starting letter is most common in this pattern?
P is the most common starting letter, with 74 matches. G follows with 28, and B has 27. Familiar P words include PROJECT, PRESENT, PROTECT, and PREVENT, making P a strong first-letter clue when the two fixed positions are already known.
What are the highest-scoring words with R second and E fifth?
WRYNECK and FRIZERS each score 19 points before board bonuses. PROJECT and TRAPEZE follow at 18 points. The score comes from the letters themselves; premium squares and any cross-words can change the points earned on a particular play.
