6-letter words with A as the 2nd letter and D as the 3rd letter

• LADDER, LADIES, SADDLE, and PADDLE are recognizable examples.
• S is the most frequent final letter, appearing in 44 matches.
• ZADDIK leads the scoring examples at 21 points.

Which letters start and end these words?

C, M, and R tie for the most common starting letter, with 15 words each; L follows with 13. Examples include CADETS, MADDEN, and RADIOS. That spread gives you several strong opening-letter groups to test while keeping A and D fixed in the middle.

S endings dominate: 44 matches finish with S, compared with 17 ending in E and 14 in R. LADIES, RADIOS, and BADGES show how often a plural-looking ending fits, but the pattern is not limited to plurals. If the last tile is uncertain, try S before the less frequent endings.

Which matches score most in Scrabble?

ZADDIK is the top scorer at 21 points, while HADJIS, HADJEE, HADJES, JADISH, and JADERY each score 17. Those less familiar words offer more scoring potential than everyday choices such as LADDER, but confirm acceptance in your game before playing them.

The dictionary totals differ: Collins includes 144 matches, NWL2023 has 109, and ENABLE has 104. Those counts overlap, so they are not separate word pools to add together. A total of 107 entries have definitions.
