This pattern fixes the ending as LL, so the useful question is which earlier letters make a playable word. Familiar options include RECALL, SCROLL, THRILL, and STROLL; the full group also contains less familiar entries such as ARGYLL and FAVELL. Only 8 matches rank among common English words, so expect a short list of recognizable choices among many rarer ones.

At a glance: the LL ending

  • The pattern returns 54 six-letter matches, and every one ends in LL.
  • Eight matches are common English words, including RECALL, THRILL, and UPHILL.
  • There are 38 defined entries, so some valid game words are obscure or name-like.
  • Collins includes 52 matches, NWL2023 includes 35, and ENABLE includes 32; these dictionary totals overlap.
  • SQUALL, SQUILL, and LOZELL each score 15 points in the scoring data.

Which 6-letter words have L in both final positions?

Start with the familiar verbs and nouns: RECALL, REFILL, RESELL, RETELL, and REROLL all fit the exact six-letter pattern. SCROLL and STROLL are easy to spot, while THRILL, SHRILL, and THRALL share the same ending but use different opening letters.

The first letter offers a practical filter. R begins 10 matches and U begins 9, while S begins 6; examples include RECALL, UPHILL, and SQUALL. If your clue gives an opening letter, check that group before scanning every LL word.

Only 8 matches rank among common English words. R begins 10 matches, the largest starting-letter group, while U begins 9 and S begins 6.

How to use six-letter words with L doubled at the end

  • For a familiar answer, test RECALL, SCROLL, THRILL, STROLL, or ENROLL against your known letters.
  • For a higher score, consider SQUALL or SQUILL at 15 points; OXGALL scores 14.
  • Treat rare forms as dictionary-dependent.
  • Many matches are uncommon, so check your game's word list before playing a rare entry.
  • R begins the largest group, with 10 matches.

Questions people ask

How many six-letter words end in LL?
There are 54 six-letter words with L in both the fifth and sixth positions. Familiar examples include RECALL, SCROLL, and THRILL, but only 8 matches are common English words, so the pattern also includes plenty of less familiar entries.
Which LL-ending six-letter word scores the most?
SQUALL, SQUILL, and LOZELL tie for the top score at 15 points each. OXGALL follows at 14 points, while EXTOLL scores 13. These are letter scores before any board-square bonuses.
Are all 54 words accepted in every game dictionary?
No. Collins lists 52 of the matches, NWL2023 lists 35, and ENABLE lists 32. Those totals overlap, but the differences mean a word accepted in one word game may not work in another; verify rare entries against the dictionary your game uses.
