That narrow V_E____ frame produces a small, uneven set: only 2 entries meet the common-word frequency cutoff, while the rest include less familiar forms such as VEEJAYS, VEEPEES, and VIELLES. The endings offer another clue: half finish in S, and the other five divide between G, K, and R. Collins includes all 10; the North American NWL2023 list includes 8.

The pattern at a glance

  • All 10 entries begin with V and place E in the third position.
  • Collins has 10 matches; NWL2023 has 8 and ENABLE has 7.
  • Only 2 entries meet our common-word frequency cutoff.
  • Five end in S; two each end in G and K, and one ends in R.
  • VEEJAYS leads the score table at 20 points.

Which matching words score highest?

VEEJAYS leads at 20 points, six more than VIEWING, VOETSAK, and VOETSEK, tied at 14. VIEWERS and VIEWIER each score 13; VEEPEES follows at 12. That ranking puts the J-bearing word above every other option, a reminder that tile value, not word length, drives the base total.

On a rack, protect the J until you see a scoring lane. Its 20-point base total stands out among these ten, while VIEWING is a strong fallback if the J does not fit. VOETSAK and VOETSEK have the same 14-point total, despite ending differently.

7-letter words with V as the 1st letter and E as the 3rd letter

For 7-letter words with V as the 1st letter and E as the 3rd letter, the chief limitation is vocabulary: only 2 qualify as common under the frequency measure. VIEWERS and VIEWING look familiar, but the remaining examples include less familiar forms such as VEEPEES and VIELLES.

Dictionary coverage changes by game: Collins accepts all 10, versus 8 in NWL2023 and 7 in ENABLE. Treat that gap as the practical check, not a signal that every unfamiliar form works everywhere; verify your game's word list before committing a play.

Questions people ask

Which matching word has the highest Scrabble score?
VEEJAYS is the top scorer at 20 points in this set. VIEWING, VOETSAK, and VOETSEK each score 14, so the J tile gives VEEJAYS the clearest base-score edge before board bonuses. The final play still depends on the open premium squares.
How many of these words end in S?
Five of the 10 matches end in S: VIEWERS, VEEJAYS, VEEPEES, VEERIES, and VIELLES. The other endings are G for VIEWING and VEERING, K for VOETSAK and VOETSEK, and R for VIEWIER. S is the dominant final letter in this pattern.
Which dictionaries accept all the matching words?
Collins includes all 10 matches, while NWL2023 includes 8 and ENABLE includes 7. The totals differ, so a word that fits the pattern is not automatically playable in every game. Check your chosen game's dictionary before using a less familiar form such as VEEPEES or VIELLES.
