This is a compact W-first pattern: 79 words end in E, compared with 308 seven-letter words that end in S after W. WEBSITE, WELCOME, WELFARE and WARFARE offer familiar anchors, while other entries range from ordinary terms to less familiar vocabulary. Dictionary counts overlap, so adding them together would overstate the number of distinct words.
7-letter words with W as the 1st letter and E as the 7th letter
- The pattern contains 79 words accepted by at least one tournament dictionary.
- Only 10 entries are among the most common English words, so expect some obscure options.
- Collins includes 76 matches, NWL2023 includes 54, and ENABLE includes 44.
- WHAIZLE and WHEEZLE lead the scoring list at 22 points each.
Which W-first, E-last entries lead on score?
WHAIZLE and WHEEZLE top the scoring results at 22 points apiece. WEBZINE and WAXLIKE follow at 21, while WARZONE, WHIFFLE and WAXABLE each score 19. The gap between familiar words and high scorers is striking: the leaders are far less everyday than WEBSITE or WELCOME.
For a play, check the board before choosing a word: the letter values alone do not tell you whether a premium square changes the result. WAXLIKE and WARZONE are easier to recognize than the top pair, but each still carries a strong score. Confirm acceptance in your game's dictionary before committing an unfamiliar entry.
Which entries are easiest to recognize?
WEBSITE, WELCOME, WELFARE and WARFARE are among the clearest everyday examples. WHISTLE, WARTIME, WRESTLE and WRINKLE are other familiar choices. These words show how the final E can sit after very different word shapes, rather than pointing to one single ending pattern.
The common-word count is just 10 of the 79 matches, so a long answer list does not mean every option will feel playable. WEBPAGE, WANNABE and WAYSIDE add recognizable alternatives, while specialist entries may be accepted in one tournament list and absent from another. Treat familiarity and dictionary acceptance as separate checks.
