The pattern is tighter than a broad ending-letter search: every match fixes C in slot two and D in slot six. SCORED, SCARED, ACCORD, SCALED, and ECHOED are among the recognizable entries, but the complete set also includes less familiar forms. Five entries fall among the top 25,000 English words by frequency, so most are uncommon, and the real search work is the unusual C placement and first-letter split.

The pattern at a glance

  • 17 words meet both fixed positions across tournament dictionaries.
  • 11 begin with S; three begin A, two E, and one O.
  • Every match ends in D; no other final letter appears.
  • Collins includes 17; ENABLE and NWL2023 each include 14.
  • Five rank among the top 25,000 English words by frequency.

Which words fit the C-second, D-last pattern?

Seventeen six-letter words put C second and D last. The standout cluster begins with S: SCORED, SCARED, SCALED, SCOPED, and SCREED all fit the frame, while SCARED and SCORED are especially familiar. The S-heavy start is not a guess: 11 of the 17 entries begin with S, while ACCORD offers a different opening and ECHOED shows the second C need not be followed by another consonant.

Treat the fixed pattern as a filter, not a promise that every candidate will be accepted. ECHOED, ECHARD, OCHRED, SCHROD, and SCOWED lead the score ranking at 12 points apiece; ACCORD and SCOPED score 11. Those less familiar forms make a strict pattern search stronger than relying only on everyday vocabulary.

How do scores and dictionary coverage compare?

The top score is 12 points, shared by five words: ECHOED, ECHARD, OCHRED, SCHROD, and SCOWED. ACCORD, SCOPED, SCAPED, and ACCEND score 11, while SCORED scores 9. For a close choice, check the available board multipliers rather than assuming a familiar word always earns more.

Dictionary coverage is the practical catch: Collins has all 17 matches, while ENABLE and NWL2023 each have 14. Three entries appear in Collins but not in those two lists, so check your game's word list before playing an unfamiliar form; pattern fit alone does not settle acceptance. For 6-letter words with C as the 2nd letter and D as the 6th letter, start by testing the S-opening candidates.
