The final D never changes

  • 227 seven-letter entries match the pattern.
  • Forward, married, arrived and carried are examples to scan for.
  • All 227 matches end in D; S starts 35, P 25 and B 21.

What changes before the final D?

Forward, married and arrived show how familiar this final-D pattern can be. Pyramid and mermaid add less predictable shapes, while the third-position R stays fixed across every example.

The first letter varies, led by S at 35, P at 25 and B at 21. Since the final D is universal, the opening tile is the useful next split in a puzzle.

Jerqued scores 24 and xeroxed 22, with agryzed at 21. These rare high scorers sit well above familiar entries such as carried, worried and derived. 227 seven-letter words with r third and d last.

Use the opening as your next filter

Tip

The 227-word list has a clear limitation: the final D gives no help distinguishing candidates because it is shared by every match. Use the first two letters or a known middle pair to narrow choices.
