The pattern is _O_E_: O sits in the second spot and E in the fourth. Familiar matches such as MONEY, WOMEN, and MODEL share space with less obvious options like JOKEY; only 94 matches count as common by word frequency. The pattern narrows the board considerably without making every answer easy to recognize, and the final position stays open, leaving several possible endings to check.

5-letter words with O as 2nd and E as 4th

  • There are 436 matches for the _O_E_ pattern across the tournament dictionaries.
  • The final letters S, D, and R lead the ending counts, with 127, 108, and 72 matches respectively.
  • JOKEY and COZEY top the scoring examples at 19 points apiece.
  • The pattern has 53 matches in the Wordle answer list.

Which starting letters appear most often?

C begins the largest group, with 52 matches; H follows with 39, then D with 36. Common examples such as COMES, COVER, and MODEL show how often a familiar C-start can fit the fixed middle letters.

A known ending can narrow the search just as sharply. S is the most frequent final letter at 127, while D accounts for 108 and R for 72. When your board confirms _O_E_ and leaves S open, try thinking of plural or verb forms such as HOMES, MOVES, or LOVES.

Which matches suit Wordle or a scoring play?

The answer list contains 53 matches, but that does not make every _O_E_ word a likely solution. MONEY, POWER, and HOTEL are recognizable candidates; obscure spellings and names need a separate check before you enter them. Many matches are outside the common-word cutoff, so expect some unfamiliar options.

For a rack with a premium J or Z, JOKEY and COZEY score 19 in the scoring data, while JOKED, ZOOEY, and ZOWEE score 17. Collins includes 428 matches and NWL2023 includes 337, so check your game's word list before relying on an unusual entry.

Questions people ask

How many five-letter words have O second and E fourth?
There are 436 five-letter matches with O second and E fourth. The pattern is _O_E_, covering familiar words such as MONEY and POWER as well as less common entries. Only 94 matches fall among the common words by frequency, so many valid options are not everyday vocabulary.
What are the highest-scoring words in this pattern?
JOKEY and COZEY score 19 points each in the scoring results. JOKED, ZOOEY, and ZOWEE score 17. These unusual spellings can be valuable when the board offers premium squares, but confirm that your game's dictionary accepts the word before playing it.
Are all 436 words possible Wordle answers?
No. The answer list contains 53 matches, even though the pattern has 436 entries across the tournament dictionaries. MONEY, POWER, and HOTEL are recognizable examples of the pattern, but the available facts do not identify which individual matches are answers.
