6-letter words with K as the 1st letter and H as the 4th letter

The pattern is exact: K opens each word, H sits in position four, and four other letters fill the gaps. The set ranges from familiar KOSHER and KUCHEN to less everyday KOLHOZ and KYTHED. Only one entry is common, so matching the letter positions is easier than finding everyday vocabulary.

How many 6-letter words have K first and H fourth?

• There are 18 matches for this six-letter pattern.
• Collins accepts all 18; NWL2023 accepts 12 and ENABLE accepts 11.
• KOLHOZ leads the scoring list at 22 Scrabble points.
• Six matches end in S, the most frequent final letter.
• Only one match is common, and 17 entries have definitions.

Which K-and-H words score the most?

KOLHOZ leads the scoring table at 22 points. KATHAK, KISHKE, KISHKA, and KYTHED share the next score, 17 apiece. KOLHOZ is the sharper scoring play when its letters fit, while the four-way tie gives you several alternatives around the fixed K-and-H pattern.

Across all 18 matches, the average score is 15.2. That high average comes with a catch: only one entry is common, and several examples are specialist vocabulary. In a timed game, check an unfamiliar play against your game's word list before spending a turn on it.

What do the word endings reveal?

S is the most frequent ending, appearing in six matches; R appears in three, while A and D appear twice each. E, I, K, and N each appear once in the ending breakdown. If your known final tile is S, this pattern has its largest cluster of options.

Dictionary coverage varies: Collins accepts 18 matches, NWL2023 accepts 12, and ENABLE accepts 11. The counts are not interchangeable across games, and this narrow pattern is not a reliable source of everyday words. Only one match is common.
