An eight-letter pattern with C fixed in position two has 829 tournament-dictionary matches. Familiar choices include actually, economic, activity, accounts, accident, and schedule, but the opening letter changes the shape of the search: S begins the largest group, while A is the only other strong cluster. Just 53 entries rank among the commonest English words, so many matches are specialist vocabulary.

The pattern at a glance

There are 829 eight-letter matches with C in position two.
S starts 482 entries; A starts 188, making S the clear leader.
The most frequent final letters are S with 290, D with 112, and E with 85.
Only 53 entries fall among the commonest English words.
Collins lists 806 matches and NWL2023 lists 589; the dictionary counts overlap.

Why do so many matches start with S?

S begins 482 entries, compared with 188 for A and 74 for E. That makes S the standout opening, not a small edge over its nearest rival. Familiar examples such as schedule and sciences show two different ways an S-starting word can fit the pattern.

A-starting matches include everyday words such as actually, accounts, accident, and accepted. Several of these contain another C later in the word, so a known second-position C does not mean the remaining letters will be simple. Try a familiar opening first, then widen the search if it stalls.

The endings offer another useful filter: 290 matches finish in S, while 112 end in D and 85 in E. Accounts, sciences, and scholars illustrate the S ending. When the first letter is unknown, a confirmed final S can narrow this large group before you inspect individual entries.

Which 8-letter words with C as the 2nd letter are familiar?

Actually, economic, activity, and schedule are recognizable starting points among the 53 common entries. The wider set contains 829 words, so familiar vocabulary covers only a small slice; less common matches are part of the pattern too.

A total of 665 matches have definitions, but tournament acceptance still varies by dictionary: Collins has 806 entries against 589 in NWL2023. Check your game's word list before relying on a less familiar answer, especially if you play across different dictionary systems.

Questions people ask

How many 8-letter words have C in the second position?

There are 829 eight-letter words with C in the second position. The set includes familiar words such as actually, economic, and schedule, alongside many less common entries. The counts include words found in at least one tournament dictionary.

Which starting letter is most common in this pattern?

S is the most common starting letter, with 482 matches. A is next with 188, followed by E with 74. Schedule is a familiar S example, while actually shows how the pattern also works with an A opening.

Are all these words accepted in NWL2023?

No. NWL2023 includes 589 of the 829 matches, while Collins includes 806. Those dictionary totals overlap, so the difference does not mean every other word belongs to a single separate list. Check the word list used in your game.
