This pattern fixes R in position two and L in position six, leaving five letters open. The results range from everyday words such as ARTICLE and PROFILE to high-scoring FRIZZLY, but only 25 entries meet the common-word cutoff. The endings are lopsided too, with E and Y far ahead.

7-letter words with R second and L sixth at a glance

  • There are 238 matching words across the tournament dictionaries.
  • Only 25 matches fall within the top 25,000 English words by frequency.
  • Collins lists 237 matches; NWL2023 has 189, and ENABLE has 179.
  • The first letter is most often T, with 38 matches; C follows with 35.

Which words fit R second and L sixth?

ARTICLE, PROFILE, TROUBLE, and FRAGILE show how naturally this pattern appears in familiar words. GREATLY, BRIEFLY, and BROADLY offer recognizable adverbs, while CRUMBLE and TRICKLE give you different endings to test. Every E-ending match ends in -LE, because L sits in sixth place; that covers 100 of the 238 words, including CRUMBLE and TRICKLE.

T, C, G, and P lead the first-letter counts with 38, 35, 34, and 32 matches; TROUBLE and TRICKLE are in the T group. At the other end, 100 words finish in E and 69 finish in Y; S is a much smaller group, with 37. The 69 Y words all end in -LY, like GREATLY and BROADLY.

The dictionary split matters when you play: Collins has 237 entries, but NWL2023 has 189 and ENABLE only 179. Not every answer transfers between word lists, so check your game's dictionary before relying on an unfamiliar match.

  • GRIZZLY and DRIZZLY each score 29 points.
  • FRIZZLE and FRAZZLE are each worth 28 points; DRIZZLE scores 26.
  • The high scorers cluster around Z-heavy spellings, unlike common picks such as ARTICLE and PROFILE.
