7-letter words with S as the 3rd letter and R as the 4th letter

  • There are 10 matches across the tournament dictionaries.
  • Five words begin with D and five begin with M.
  • Four matches end in E; DISRUPT ends in T.
  • DISRANK and MISRELY lead the scoring at 12 points each.
  • Collins includes all 10; ENABLE and NWL2023 each include eight.

Which words fit, and which score highest?

DISRANK and MISRELY are the top scorers at 12 points. DISRUPT, MISREAD, and DISROBE each score 10, while MISRULE, MISRATE, and MUSROLS score nine and DISRATE and DISROOT trail at eight. If you need a familiar word, start with MISREAD or DISRUPT rather than the less common high scorers.

The endings narrow the set further: four words end in E, two end in T, and D, K, S, and Y close one each. DISRUPT and MISREAD show how the same S-R middle can lead to very different endings. Seven of the ten have definitions, so some entries are valid plays without being everyday vocabulary.

The neighboring patterns show just how restrictive this pair is. With A in the third position and R fourth, the count rises to 355; changing the fourth letter to T while keeping S third gives 476. This S-R combination has only 10 matches.

Will these words work in every word game?

Collins has all 10; ENABLE and NWL2023 each have eight. For MUSROLS, DISRATE, and DISROOT, check the game’s own dictionary rather than assuming identical coverage. Just one match is common, so these words suit a precise pattern clue better than everyday vocabulary browsing.

Questions people ask

How many 7-letter words have S third and R fourth?
There are 10 matches in the tournament dictionaries. Five begin with D and five with M; four end in E. DISRUPT and MISREAD are among the more recognizable options, while the rest include less common words such as DISRANK and MUSROLS.
Which word in this pattern scores the most?
DISRANK and MISRELY tie for the highest score at 12 points each. DISRUPT, MISREAD, and DISROBE score 10 apiece, so the less familiar words lead this group rather than its best-known examples.
Are all 10 words accepted in ENABLE and NWL2023?
No. Collins accepts all 10 matches, but ENABLE and NWL2023 each accept eight. That means dictionary coverage differs for this exact S-R pattern, so a word that is legal in a Collins game can be refused in one that uses a North American list.
