The pattern is _ _ _ I _ S: the fourth tile is I, and the final tile is S. All 617 matches appear in at least one tournament dictionary, but only 76 rank among the top 25,000 English words by frequency. That gap matters: the pattern yields plenty of playable entries, though many are unlikely to come to mind during a quick game.

The pattern at a glance

There are 617 six-letter matches, and every one ends in S.
Collins includes 600 matches; NWL2023 includes 459, and ENABLE includes 415.
Only 76 matches fall within the top 25,000 English words by frequency.
Series, claims, cities, movies, and bodies are recognizable examples.
OZZIES leads the scoring list at 24 points.

Which words fit this I-and-S pattern?

The 6-letter words with I fourth and S sixth range from everyday plurals to less familiar entries. Series, cities, and movies are easy to recognize; claims and bodies also show how often this pattern catches ordinary words ending in S.

The first letter gives you another useful constraint. S is the most frequent starting letter, with 64 matches, followed by C with 49 and R with 47. If your known tiles begin with S, try series or stairs; for C, consider claims, cities, or copies.

The common-word count is a small fraction of the full set: 76 of 617 meet the frequency cutoff. Many remaining matches are valid in a tournament list but uncommon in everyday writing, so check your game's word list before relying on an obscure entry.

How do 6-letter words with I fourth and S sixth score?

OZZIES scores 24 points in the scoring system, ahead of JAZIES at 22 and QAPIKS at 21. Those standouts rely on high-value letters; they are not typical examples of the pattern. For more familiar choices, SERIES and CITIES are easier to spot, though neither appears among the listed top scorers.

Use the fixed I and S first, then inspect the other four rack tiles for a high-value combination. A rare spelling can be a strong play only if your game accepts it. The pattern is a letter-clue tool, not a single-answer puzzle.

Questions people ask

How many six-letter words have I as the fourth letter and S as the last?

There are 617 matches in at least one tournament dictionary. Familiar examples include series, claims, cities, movies, and bodies, while many other entries are much less common. The pattern fixes the fourth letter as I and the final letter as S.

What is the highest-scoring word in this pattern?

OZZIES scores 24 points, the highest score among the listed matches. JAZIES follows at 22, and QAPIKS scores 21. These are unusual-looking options, so check that your game's dictionary accepts a word before playing it.

How common are six-letter words with I fourth and S sixth?

Only 76 of the 617 matches fall within the top 25,000 English words by frequency. Series, cities, and movies are familiar; most other matches are valid in a tournament list but uncommon in everyday writing.
