Forward, married and arrived all share the fixed third-place R and final D; The ending never varies across 227 matches, so the opening becomes the useful split: S leads at 35, followed by P at 25 and B at 21; Jerqued scores 24; Sprayed, striped and scraped use different blends before their common finish; Married and carried show another recognizable family, useful when the opening letters are already known.
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.
- There are 21 common entries and 171 with definitions.
- The average score is 11.6; top examples include worried and derived.
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.
Married, carried and worried share a recognizable ending, as do arrived and derived. The final D is fixed, but the word shapes range from everyday verbs to less common forms such as jerqued. That 24-point scorer sits far above the 11.6 average.
Use the opening as your next filter
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.
