The pattern is _T___K_. Seven matches start with S and four start with A; seven also end in S. Only two qualify as common by frequency, so expect a mix of familiar plays and obscure vocabulary; Collins includes all eleven, while ENABLE and NWL2023 each include six, and nine have dictionary definitions.

7-letter words with T as the 2nd letter and K as the 6th letter

  • Eleven words match the fixed pattern _T___K_.
  • S leads the first-letter split with seven matches; A accounts for the other four.
  • Seven words end in S; the remaining four end in Y, E, or T.
  • Only two entries meet the common-word cutoff, although nine have dictionary definitions.
  • Collins lists all eleven matches; ENABLE and NWL2023 each list six.

Which words fit the pattern?

ATTACKS, STREAKS, and STREAKY are the clearest starting points. Each places T second and K sixth, but their first and final letters differ. ATTACKS begins with A, while STREAKS and STREAKY begin with S.

STREAKS and STREAKY differ only in their final letter, a useful contrast when a puzzle gives you the first six positions. The seven S-starting matches outnumber the four A-starting ones, but both groups deserve a check against your rack or clue.

Less familiar entries include ATTASKT, ATABEKS, STRICKS, STRAIKS, STREEKS, STENOKY, and STROOKE. With just two common words among the eleven, an unfamiliar-looking candidate is not automatically a miss; confirm it against the word list used in your game.

Which matches score most, and what should you check?

  • STREAKY and STENOKY top the scoring list at 14 points each.
  • ATTACKS, STRICKS, and ATABEKS each score 13 points.
  • Seven matches finish in S, but four end in Y, E, or T; test those alternatives before settling on an S.
  • ATTACKS is more recognizable than STENOKY, but a 14-point play beats 13 only when the board placement works.
