The pattern is _ _ _ E _ A: positions four and six are fixed, while the other four letters stay open. CAMERA and CINEMA make the shape easy to recognize, but only 7 matches rank among the most common English words. The starting letters are unevenly spread, too: P leads with 9 words, ahead of M with 8.

Quick facts about this letter pattern

  • There are 66 six-letter matches, and all of them end in A.
  • Only 7 matches fall among the most common English words.
  • ECZEMA leads the Scrabble score list at 19 points.
  • P is the most frequent starting letter, with 9 matches.

Which 6-letter words have E fourth and A last?

CAMERA, CINEMA, and SCHEMA show familiar letter groups inside the _ _ _ E _ A frame. GENEVA, EUREKA, and BODEGA broaden the mix, while AMOEBA and FAVELA offer other recognizable examples. The fixed letters do not dictate the opening: P starts 9 matches and M starts 8.

C and S each begin 6 words, so those openings are tied behind P and M. If you know the first letter, use it alongside the fourth-position E and final A; the pattern alone still leaves 66 possibilities. The last letter is no extra filter here, since every match ends in A.

How do scores and dictionary coverage compare?

ECZEMA scores 19 points, ahead of ZAREBA, ZABETA, and ZEREBA at 17 each. SCHEMA scores 13, showing how sharply point totals vary even within this tight letter pattern. For a score-focused play, compare the premium-letter tiles on your board rather than assuming a familiar word will lead.

The 6-letter words with E as the 4th letter and A as the 6th letter do not all appear in every game list: Collins has 66, ENABLE 38, and NWL2023 43. The total counts words found in at least one tournament dictionary, not a guarantee that every app accepts each entry. Check your game's word list before playing an unfamiliar word.
