6-letter words with J as the 3rd letter and S as the 6th letter

The pattern is sharply constrained: every match has J in slot three and ends in S, yet the set spans several opening letters. Enjoys and majors look familiar; qajaqs and mejlis are less likely to come to mind during a quick solve. Dictionary coverage also differs by game, so the full set is not equally familiar to every player.

• Exactly 28 tournament-dictionary words match the pattern.
• All 28 end in S, with J fixed in the third position.

Collins includes 27 matches, NWL2023 includes 18, and ENABLE includes 11; memberships overlap, so those counts are not additive. For 6-letter words with J as the 3rd letter and S as the 6th letter, the fixed letters narrow the search, but obscure forms make up much of the vocabulary. Check your game's word list before relying on an unfamiliar entry.
