6-letter words with D as the 4th letter and I as the 5th letter

The pattern is _ _ _ D I _: the fourth and fifth positions stay fixed, while the first three and final letter vary. CREDIT, STUDIO, and NORDIC are recognizable examples; ZADDIK and ZENDIK lead the scoring table. Only 9 matches sit near the top of everyday usage, so expect plenty of specialist vocabulary.

What stands out in this pattern?

• The pattern has 103 words across the tournament dictionaries.
• C leads the first position with 14 matches, just ahead of B with 13.
• E is the most frequent final letter, appearing in 41 words.
• Only 9 matches are common English words by our frequency measure.
• The word list has definitions for 71 entries.

Which familiar words fit the pattern?

CREDIT and STUDIO are easy anchors, while CANDID, BANDIT, and PUNDIT show how varied the first three letters can be. HOODIE, FOODIE, and BIRDIE finish with E, matching the dominant ending; NORDIC and ACIDIC show the less common C ending.

The final letter is a useful narrowing clue: E appears in 41 matches, while C is next with 17. Among starters, C has 14 words and B has 13, so neither one dominates. Collins includes 100 matches and NWL2023 includes 71, so confirm the dictionary your game uses before you commit.

Scrabble scores reveal a less familiar side of the pattern: ZADDIK scores 21 and ZENDIK scores 20. SPADIX, DIKDIK, OXIDIC, and EXODIC each score 16, well above the 10-point average for the full group. IXODID follows at 15 and KHADIS at 14, so the top of the list stays in unfamiliar territory.

Treat those high scorers as rack options, not everyday vocabulary. Just 9 words are common, and a big tile score does not mean every game accepts the word. CREDIT or BANDIT is easier to recognize, but the rarer entries are worth checking when your rack needs a precise fit.
