This pattern is unusually tight: none of its 15 matches count as common English words by our frequency measure. The entries include forms such as VISAED, IDEAED, and JAGAED, alongside less familiar words like PERAEA and SPHAER. All 15 appear in Collins, while only two appear in each of ENABLE and NWL2023, so game dictionary coverage matters.
6-letter words with A as the 4th letter and E as the 5th letter
- There are 15 matching words, with A and E fixed in the middle two positions.
- JAGAED scores 15 points, the highest value among these entries.
- Seven words end in D, compared with five ending in S.
- P and S tie as the most frequent first letters, with three words apiece.
- None of the matches fall into our common-word group.
Which letters appear at the start and end?
P and S are the most productive openings, each starting three matches. VISAED and VIVAED add two V words; COBaea, GYNAES, IDEAED, JAGAED, and MARAES each begin with a different letter. That spread makes the fixed A-E sequence more distinctive than any single opening.
The endings cluster more strongly: seven finish with D and five with S, leaving only three words for A and R combined. VISAED, IDEAED, and PLEAED show the D ending; GYNAES and STRAES illustrate the S group. If your final letter is known, test D or S first.
What should you know before playing one?
JAGAED tops the score list at 15, ahead of VIVAED and WAWAED at 13 each. SPHAER scores 11, while VISAED, COBAEA, and GYNAES each score 10. The average is 9.7, but these values do not make every entry an easy word to recognize.
The main limitation is familiarity: none of these entries count as common, and only eight have definitions in the available word reference. Check your game's word list before relying on a Collins entry; ENABLE and NWL2023 each cover only two matches. For this pattern, confirming validity matters more than memorizing the whole set.
