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

This pattern locks B into position three and Y into the final tile, so every match ends alike while beginnings vary. NOBODY and SUBWAY are familiar anchors, but only five entries meet the common-word cutoff, leaving most matches outside frequent vocabulary. Dictionary coverage differs too: Collins accepts 33, NWL2023 24, and ENABLE 21.

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

• All 34 matches place B third and Y sixth; the final-letter clue is fixed across the set.
• NOBODY is a recognizable anchor, alongside SUBWAY, SUBTLY, BUBBLY, and EMBODY.
• Five words meet the common-word cutoff, so most matches are less familiar than these examples.
• Collins lists 33, NWL2023 lists 24, and ENABLE lists 21; their accepted words do not fully overlap.
• WOBBLY, HUBBLY, and WABBLY top the score table at 16 points apiece.

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

Only 34 words fit this precise pattern, far fewer than sibling patterns with A, E, O, I, or U in the third position: those have 200, 172, 171, 167, and 139 matches respectively. B is a narrow filter, not just another vowel swap.

Among the first letters in the distribution, R leads with five matches; A, N, and U each begin four. NOBODY, SUBWAY, and EMBODY show how varied the starting letters can be, rather than pointing to one obvious opening.

Only five entries meet the common-word cutoff, and the average score is 13.3. Check your game's lexicon before playing rarer examples such as HOBDAY or AMBARY.

For scoring, WOBBLY, HUBBLY, and WABBLY each reach 16 points. SUBWAY scores 14, while BUBBLY and PEBBLY score 15; a board bonus can change the value of any play.

Keeping B third but changing the last letter gives 205 matches for S, 95 for E, 75 for D, and 51 for T. Those neighboring patterns outnumber the Y group, so a final-letter clue sharply changes the candidate pool.
