This fixed pattern leaves a compact set: each word has T in position two and S in position six. The opening letter splits evenly between A and S, with 10 matches each, while T is the most frequent final letter. Only four entries count as common by frequency, so expect plenty of specialist vocabulary alongside recognizable words.

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

  • There are 29 tournament-dictionary matches for this seven-letter pattern.
  • Collins includes 29 matches; ENABLE and NWL2023 each include 24.
  • The words most often start with A or S, with 10 matches for each initial.
  • T finishes 12 words, ahead of M with eight and E with five.
  • Stylish is the top scorer at 13 points; atheism and atavism score 12 each.

Which matching words are familiar or score well?

Stylish, atheist, atheism, stylist, and utilise are among the recognizable options. Their fixed letters make the pattern easy to check: the second character must be T, and the sixth must be S. The rest of the letters still need to match the game’s word list.

For board play, stylish leads this group at 13 points, while atheism, atavism, and otocyst each reach 12. Atomism, etacism, itacism, and utopism score 11 apiece. Those are tile scores before any board-square bonuses, so a premium square can change the final total.

Where do these words begin and end?

A and S tie as opening letters, but the remaining starts are much less common: E and U contribute three apiece, I contributes two, and O contributes one. The pattern with A in the second position and S in the sixth has 317 matches, while this T version has just 29.

For 7-letter words with T as the 2nd letter and S as the 6th letter, the ending is a useful narrowing clue: check T first, then M or E. Just four matches are common by frequency, and the two 24-word dictionary counts do not make every entry interchangeable across games. Check your game's word list before playing an unfamiliar form.
