The fixed ending is -ED, but the words begin with many different letters. Familiar options such as ADDED, TRIED, MOVED, and LOVED sit alongside less common entries. Use the first letter to narrow a clue, or compare the dictionary counts before playing an unfamiliar word.

The pattern at a glance

  • 529 words match the pattern, and 437 have definitions available.
  • Collins lists 516 matches, NWL2023 lists 416, and ENABLE lists 388; those dictionary totals overlap.
  • Only 96 matches are marked common, so many valid options are unfamiliar.
  • FAZED, HAZED, FUZED, and PYXED top the score list at 18 points.
  • The matching Wordle set has 23 answers and 524 allowed guesses.

5-letter words with E as the 4th letter and D as the 5th letter

The largest starting-letter group is S, with 42 words; T has 36, and C has 33. L and R tie at 32 apiece. If your clue reveals the first letter, those counts give you a quick sense of how much of the list remains.

Many recognizable matches are past-tense forms: BASED, ASKED, TRIED, MOVED, and LOVED. But the ending does not guarantee a verb. SPEED is a familiar noun with the same final two letters, a useful reminder to test the whole pattern rather than guess by grammar.

When does this ending fit your clue?

For 5-letter words with E as the 4th letter and D as the 5th letter, the final D is fixed; focus your next check on the first three tiles. When the fourth tile is E but the last tile is unknown, endings in S are more numerous at 719, followed by R at 442. The E-ending version has 60 matches.

For a scoring play, FAZED, HAZED, FUZED, and PYXED each score 18 points. Most options are not common, though, and dictionary acceptance varies: Collins has more matches than NWL2023 or ENABLE. Check your game's word list before committing an unfamiliar entry.

Questions people ask

Which letters start the most words matching this pattern?
S starts the most, with 42 matches; T follows with 36, then C with 33. L and R are tied at 32 each. Once your board gives you an opening letter, these counts show which branches have the most candidates without changing the fixed E-D ending.
Are all 529 words accepted in every word game?
No. Collins contains 516 matches, NWL2023 contains 416, and ENABLE contains 388, with overlap among those lists. A word accepted in one dictionary can still be rejected in another, so check the list used by your particular game before playing an obscure option.
Which matching words have the highest score?
FAZED, HAZED, FUZED, and PYXED share the top score of 18 points. Those are less familiar choices than BASED or ASKED, so confirm that your game accepts the word before building a play around its score.
