That fixed second tile produces a lopsided set: 518 words begin with S, while only 82 begin with A and 37 with E. Familiar options include student, station, studies, and stories, but the full set is much broader than everyday vocabulary. Counts include entries found in at least one of ENABLE, Collins, or NWL2023, so this is a dictionary-spanning pattern list rather than a single-game answer bank.

At a glance: the T-second-letter pattern

682 entries have seven letters and T in position two.
S leads as the first letter with 518 entries; A follows with 82.
Only 96 entries fall in the common-word group, including student, station, and stories.
ETHOXYL leads the Scrabble score ranking at 20 points; STYLIZE and ATHEIZE score 19.

Why do so many entries start with S?

S accounts for 518 of the 682 entries; the next most common opening is A at 82, followed by E at 37. Familiar ST words include student, stopped, and streets, while AT options include attempt, attacks, and athlete. That strong S cluster is the quickest way to narrow a crossword pattern or a rack with a known first tile.

Frequency is the catch: only 96 entries are classed as common, even though 532 have definitions. So treat familiar examples such as student and studies as starting points, not a promise that every candidate will be everyday vocabulary. The set includes 670 Collins entries, 501 in NWL2023, and 463 in ENABLE.

Which 7-letter words with T as the 2nd letter score highest?

ETHOXYL is the top scorer at 20 points. STYLIZE and ATHEIZE tie at 19, while ITEMIZE and ATOMIZE each score 18. These are strong tile totals, but they are not automatically the best plays: rack fit and premium squares decide whether those points translate into a bigger turn.

One limitation matters in dictionary games: 670 entries appear in Collins, compared with 501 in NWL2023, so acceptance can differ between word lists. With just 96 entries classed as common, check your game's dictionary before committing to an unfamiliar candidate such as ETHOXYL.

Questions people ask

How many 7-letter words have T as the second letter?

682 seven-letter words place T in the second position. Of those, 518 start with S, making S by far the largest opening-letter group; A follows with 82. The count includes entries accepted by at least one tournament dictionary.

What is the highest-scoring word with T as its second letter?

ETHOXYL is the highest scorer at 20 points. STYLIZE and ATHEIZE follow at 19 each, while ITEMIZE and ATOMIZE score 18 apiece. Actual Scrabble turn value can rise or fall with the board's premium squares and the tiles you can place.

Are all 682 words accepted in NWL2023?

No. The full set includes entries from several tournament lists, while 501 appear in NWL2023. Collins includes 670 and ENABLE includes 463. Check the lexicon used by your game before playing an unfamiliar entry.
