6-letter words with B as the 3rd letter and E as the 6th letter

That fixed pattern is less common than the ending alone suggests: every match ends in E, while only 95 words place B in position three. Nine are common by frequency, so familiar entries such as mobile and bubble sit beside many specialist words. The group includes 91 Collins words, 63 NWL2023 words, and 55 ENABLE words, so game acceptance varies.

At a glance: the B-third, E-final pattern

• R begins the most entries: 13 of the 95 start with R; D follows with 8.
• U, B, L, N, and S each open 6 matches, while C opens 5.
• Only 9 entries qualify as common, though 73 have a definition in the dictionary sources.
• Collins includes 91 matches, compared with 63 in NWL2023 and 55 in ENABLE.
• QUBYTE leads the scoring list at 20 points; the average score is 10.4.

How many 6-letter words have B third and E sixth?

The answer is 95. E is fixed in every match, while the B in the third slot separates this group from the much broader family of words ending in E. For a quick scan, start with familiar forms: mobile, debate, bubble, subtle, rubble, pebble, and rebate.

Word shape is a better first filter than meaning here. R contributes 13 matches and leads the next group, D, with 8. By comparison, 205 B-third words end in S, so changing the final clue changes the candidate pool sharply.

The E-ending group is far smaller than that S-ending sibling, so start with the final letter when you already know it.

Which B-third, E-final words score most?

QUBYTE tops the scoring list at 20 points, followed by JOBBIE and JABBLE at 17 each. JUBILE and JUBATE score 15 apiece. Familiar choices score less: KIBBLE is 14, while WOBBLE and HOBBLE are 13.

Board premiums can change a play's total, so a lower face-value word placed on a premium square can still beat QUBYTE.

Most matches are not everyday vocabulary: 73 have a definition across the dictionary sources, but just 9 fall in the common-frequency group. For solving, lock the final E first, then test B in the third slot; do not assume B begins the word.

Treat 95 as tournament-dictionary coverage, not a promise that every app accepts every entry. Only 55 matches appear in ENABLE, versus 91 in Collins. Check your game's word list before committing an unfamiliar form such as jabble or qubyte.
