Highest-scoring words
This pattern fixes two positions but leaves plenty of room for different word shapes; Only 23 of the 139 entries rank among the most common English words, so familiar picks such as PRIMARY, DRIVERS, and WRITERS sit alongside less everyday options; The final letter is a useful clue: S is far more common than any other ending.
At a glance: the R-R pattern
- There are 139 seven-letter entries with R in positions two and six.
- PRIMARY, DRIVERS, and PREPARE are recognizable examples.
- S is the final letter in 71 entries; Y and E follow with 20 and 19.
- P begins 39 entries, more than any other starting letter.
- The average score is 10.9 points.
What do R-second, R-sixth words look like?
The opening letter P leads this group with 39 words, while B starts 19 and G starts 17. That makes P a strong first-position guess when you know the two R placements but have not solved the opening tile. PREPARE, PREFERS, and PROVERB show several different endings.
A plural or other S-ending form is common here: 71 entries finish with S. DRIVERS, WRITERS, TRADERS, and BROKERS make that ending easy to spot. Y and E are also worthwhile checks, with examples such as PRIMARY, BRAVERY, and PROCURE.
The pattern is much smaller than its vowel-second neighbors. The same seven-letter pattern with A in position two has 581 matches, compared with 139 here. For a tighter comparison, the six-letter R-in-both-positions group contains 90 words.
Which entries score highest, and where do the lists differ?
Among the higher-scoring options, FRIZERS is listed at 19 points; BRAZERS, PRIZERS, and CROZERS each score 18. Those are less familiar choices than BREWERY or BRAVERY, both listed at 15, so check that your game accepts the word.
These 7-letter words with R as the 2nd and 6th letter are counted across tournament dictionaries, not as a promise of universal acceptance. The entries overlap across lists: Collins includes 137, NWL2023 includes 110, and ENABLE includes 105. Check your game's word list before committing to an unfamiliar high scorer.
