Key patterns in t 1st and h 2nd

  • 178 matches begin TH; 25 are common and 143 are defined.
  • S ends 52 entries, the largest ending group; D is next at 20.

  • THICKLY, THWACKS, THIAZIN, and THIAZOL tie at 19 points.

How to read this letter frame

An opening pair can make a large set feel simpler, but do not assume every TH word is familiar. The 19-point leaders include THIAZIN and THIAZOL beside THICKLY and THWACKS, a sharp split between recognizable and specialist vocabulary.

The word shapes range from a familiar THUNDER to the less common THANGKA, but the opening pair stays constant. Some candidates share useful letter runs: THICKER, THICKEN, and THICKLY all start alike, then diverge near the end. That makes the page especially useful when you already have a TH rack prefix.

A broad opening pair brings a mix of familiar vocabulary and specialist entries. Start with THROUGH, THEATRE, or THUNDER if you need a quick recognition cue, then use the score list for less common possibilities. The set’s 25 common entries are a minority of its total, so the distinction matters.

Which words score highest in t 1st and h 2nd?

THICKLY leads the scoring list at 19 points. Use THROUGH and THOUGHT as the easier recognition anchors, then compare the rarer high-value spellings before playing.

The final-letter breakdown also helps trim a large candidate set: S is far ahead of every other ending. If the board calls for a plural-looking close, start there; if a different cross tile fixes the end, D, Y, and R remain meaningful alternatives.
