4-Letter Words With H as the Second Letter
H stays in the second position throughout this 11-word set, which begins with CHAT and ends with WHEN. Nothing on this page moves the confirmed tile to make a familiar spelling fit.
Repeated letters
No answer spends a tile twice
Every match uses distinct letters. That makes CHAT, CHEF, and CHEW especially easy to compare against a board where duplicate feedback has not appeared.
Reading order
The list runs from CHAT to WHEN
CHAT, CHEF, CHEW, CHIN, and CHIP open the list; WHEN is the final entry alphabetically.
All 11 matches from CHAT to WHEN
This set is small enough for a single careful pass: CHAT opens it, CHOP marks the midpoint and WHEN closes it. Cross out conflicts as you go instead of rereading the whole list after every clue.

The second square does not move
Keep the second square honest
Do not slide H into another position just to make a familiar word fit. In CHAT, the fixed tile stays second while C, A, and T occupy the open squares. Compare those letters with the board first; then use the position leaders to break ties among the survivors.
CHAT keeps H second, but the other 3 letters still need permission from your board. A single misplaced green or reused gray is enough to rule it out.
