7-letter words with T as the 3rd letter and E as the 4th letter

The pattern is _ _ T E _ _ _, and its 165 matches range from familiar forms such as ATTEMPT and ENTERED to specialist entries like ALTEZZA. Only 24 belong to the common-word group, so a fixed pair of letters still leaves plenty of less familiar possibilities. The endings are strikingly lopsided: S leads the field, while the first letters are spread across several choices.

What stands out in this letter pattern?

• All 165 matches appear in at least one of ENABLE, Collins, and NWL2023; the dictionaries do not contain identical sets.
• ATTEMPT, ENTERED, and INTENSE are recognizable examples, while ALTEZZA leads the scoring list at 25 points.
• A is the most common first letter, with 22 matches; E follows with 15.
• A final S appears 60 times, ahead of E at 25 and D at 16.
• Only 24 matches fall in the common-word group, so expect plenty of less familiar forms.

7-letter words with T as the 3rd letter and E as the 4th letter

The pattern includes a familiar cluster of word forms: ATTEMPT, ENTERED, ALTERED, EXTENDS, and ATTENDS. Endings give you a strong next clue: 60 words finish in S, while 25 finish in E and 16 in D.

The opening letters are less concentrated. A begins 22 matches, E starts 15, and O starts 14. That mix means the fixed T-E pair narrows the search, but it does not point to one obvious first letter.

If your first letter is fixed too, compare those counts before testing a less common opening.

Which entries score highest in Scrabble?

ALTEZZA scores 25 points before board bonuses, with APTERYX at 19 and ZETETIC at 18. ANTEFIX and VITEXES each reach 17, so the unusual high-value letters push these entries above familiar forms such as ATTEMPT.

The match pool spans 117 ENABLE entries, 163 Collins entries, and 125 NWL2023 entries rather than one universal list. Matching the letter pattern alone does not guarantee acceptance in your game, so check its dictionary when choosing an unfamiliar word.
