The pattern fixes R in slot two and N in slot four, leaving five letters open; GRANTED, PRINTED, and TRANSIT show how naturally the frame fits familiar words; The overall count is 242, while just 30 entries fall among the most common English words, so the full set reaches well beyond everyday vocabulary.

7-letter words with R as the 2nd letter and N as the 4th letter

There are 242 matches for this seven-letter pattern. GRANTED, GRANITE, and GRANDMA begin with G; PRINTED and PRINTER begin with P; TRANSIT starts with T. Those familiar examples make it easier to test the fixed slots before scanning less common options.

Keep the known letters in place and sort candidates by the open positions. The endings offer a useful clue: 47 matches end in S, while 44 end in E and 40 end in D. For a tight rack or a crossing clue, checking those common final letters first narrows the search.

Only 30 matches rank among the most common English words, so many entries will be unfamiliar. Counts differ by dictionary: Collins includes 233, NWL2023 includes 184, and ENABLE includes 166; those sets overlap. Check your game's word list before relying on a less familiar match.

Which matches score highest?

KRANZES leads the scores at 20 points, with BRONZED and WRYNECK tied at 19. BRONZES, BRONZER, PRINCOX, PRENZIE, and BRONZEN each score 18, putting several less familiar choices close behind the leader.

For a practical board search, start with the high-scoring examples only when their letters fit your rack and the fixed R-N pattern. FRANKLY and CRUNCHY each score 17 and are more recognizable options; a lower raw score can still beat a premium-word chase when it fits the board.

Questions people ask

How many common words fit the R-second, N-fourth pattern?

30 of the 242 matches count among the most common English words by our frequency measure. Familiar examples include GRANTED, PRINTED, TRANSIT, and GRANITE. The other entries extend into less common vocabulary, so a pattern match alone does not guarantee that a word will feel familiar.

Which dictionary has the most matching words?

Collins has the most, with 233 matches, compared with 184 in NWL2023 and 166 in ENABLE. These dictionary lists overlap, so their counts do not add up to the overall 242. Check the word list used by your game when a less familiar candidate matters.

What are some familiar examples of seven-letter R-N words?

GRANTED, PRINTED, TRANSIT, GRANITE, and GRANDMA all put R second and N fourth. Their first letters vary, while the fixed positions stay the same. That mix gives you several recognizable starting points when the other letters in a puzzle or rack are still uncertain.
