Which letters appear most often at the end?

D is the strongest ending: 21 words finish with it, including RIPPED, TIPPED, DIPPED, and ZIPPED. E and R tie at 17 each, with SIMPLE and ZIPPER offering familiar examples. If your final tile is D, test that ending before spending time on less common choices.

How should you use 6-letter words with I second and P fourth?

Lock in the known letters before scanning the remaining slots: _ I _ P _ _. Then sort candidates by any extra clue. A final D points toward words such as RIPPED or ZIPPED, while a final E makes SIMPLE or DIAPER worth checking.

For Scrabble, ZIPPED and JIMPLY top these matches at 20 points each, followed by ZIPPER and ZIPPOS at 19. Those are face-value rankings; board premiums can change the result, so check the placement as well as the word.

Dictionary coverage is not identical across games: the counts are 93 in Collins, 77 in NWL2023, and 70 in ENABLE. The 95 matches are a union, not a promise that every entry works in your game. Check your game's word list before committing an unfamiliar candidate.
