    Use letter positions to find a word with missing letters.

    Choose a word length from 2–15 and put each known letter in its numbered box. Leave an unknown box empty, or paste a complete pattern using _ for each missing letter. E__P_A_T has eight positions: E in box 1, P in box 4, A in box 6 and T in box 8. Each underscore leaves exactly one position open, not an unknown number of letters.

    This is a word pattern search: the other letters are free to vary. EGGPLANT and ELEPHANT both fit E__P_A_T, although their middle letters differ. If you have a finite supply of tiles that can move instead, choose Letters to words; a rack limits how many copies you can use, while a position fixes where a letter must appear.

    Add another constraint when you have evidence for it. Include EE narrows the eight-position example to ELEPHANT: its E in box 1 and E in box 3 meet the two-E minimum. EGGPLANT has only one E. Alternatively, fixing G in box 2 selects EGGPLANT. Include letters sets minimum counts anywhere; numbered boxes set exact locations.

    If nothing matches, recheck the number of boxes, copied letters and any include or exclude filters. A required or fixed letter cannot also be excluded. Keep confirmed positions and revisit uncertain guesses first. Results are spelling candidates from one general American English list; a word may be absent, and a matching pattern does not establish the meaning of a clue or acceptance by a particular game.

    Find words from an eight-letter pattern

    Both words keep E first, P fourth, A sixth and T eighth. The four gaps can supply different letters; use your clue to choose between the candidates.

    E _ _ P _ A _ T · 8 positions → EGGPLANT, ELEPHANT

    Require a second E without choosing its position

    Include EE requires at least two Es in total. The known E already counts. ELEPHANT supplies another E in box 3; EGGPLANT has only one and drops out.

    E _ _ P _ A _ T · include E E → ELEPHANT

    Search a ten-letter word with known positions

    Fix R in box 1, A in box 5 and T in box 10. RESTAURANT is the matching spelling in this list. Its letter fit still needs to agree with your clue.

    R _ _ _ A _ _ _ _ T · 10 positions → RESTAURANT

    Questions about this search

    Can I paste a pattern with a different number of letters?

    Yes. Paste a complete 2–15-position pattern into a numbered box, using A–Z and _ for gaps. If its length differs from the selected length, choose the offered full-pattern action to update the boxes and search. Your include and exclude filters are kept, so check them if the new pattern conflicts. Spaces between letters are ignored.

    How do I find words with a letter in the second or another position?

    Choose the word length and fill the matching numbered box. To require A second and E fourth in a four-letter word, enter _A_E; BAKE and CARE are examples that fit. To require A somewhere without fixing its location, use Include letters instead. Typing a letter there does not determine its position.

    Does each missing letter need a blank tile?

    No. In Known positions, every empty box is one unrestricted letter position; you do not need a tile for it. Use _ when pasting those gaps. The ? symbol belongs to Letters to words, where it supplies one missing tile from a finite rack and up to two blanks are allowed. Neither method interprets the wording of a crossword clue.
