An R in slot two and an M in slot five narrow the search, but the remaining letters produce a mixed set: familiar forms such as GRAMMAR and TRIUMPH sit beside specialist entries; The list has 74 matches across tournament dictionaries, and only 10 rank among the most frequent English words; Treat it as a pattern-solving pool, not a list of everyday vocabulary.

At a glance on the R-and-M pattern

  • 74 matches appear in at least one tournament dictionary.
  • Collins accepts 71; NWL2023 accepts 62; ENABLE accepts 55.
  • Only 10 entries rank among the top 25,000 English words by frequency.
  • GRAMMAR, TRIUMPH, and FREEMAN are recognizable examples.
  • KRIMMER leads the Scrabble scores at 15 points.

How many 7-letter words have R second and M fifth?

Among the 74 matches, first letters T, G, and B lead with 14, 12, and 10 words respectively. C, D, and P each start 8; F starts 4, and A starts 2. When your clue reveals the first letter, test T, G, or B early rather than scanning every possible opening.

Endings cluster too: 24 words finish N, 16 finish R, and 13 finish D. FREEMAN and GRAMMAR show how that last tile separates candidates sharing the fixed R and M. Several entries also end S, but N is the clearest initial filter.

Dictionary counts vary: Collins has 71, NWL2023 62, and ENABLE 55. Those totals overlap within 74 matches, and only 10 entries fall in the top 25,000 English words by frequency. Many matches are specialist vocabulary, so check your game's word list before banking on an unfamiliar form.

Which words score well in Scrabble?

KRIMMER tops the score list at 15 points. TRIUMPH, CRAMMED, BRAHMAN, BRAHMIN, CREWMAN, CREWMEN, and BRIMMED each score 14, just behind it. Save KRIMMER for a premium square or a rack that needs a high-value K; a familiar-looking word does not necessarily beat it on score.

For 7-letter words with R as the 2nd letter and M as the 5th letter, the five open positions still create many shapes. Try word families you recognize—TRIUMPH, DRUMMER, TRIMMED—then use the final letter and your game's dictionary as checks.
