This pattern locks M fourth and E fifth, and the result is one of the larger six-letter sets: 324 tournament-dictionary matches, of which 42 are common words. Endings skew sharply toward a few letters, while the openings stay evenly spread. That makes the last tile the sharper clue in most solves.

What stands out in the M-E pattern?

  • All 324 matches place M fourth and E fifth; 42 are common words and 273 have definitions.
  • D, N, R and S are the busiest endings, covering 292 matches between them.
  • First letters are spread evenly: S leads with 33, just ahead of B at 32 and C at 30.
  • AZYMES tops the scores at 20 points, one clear of ZIMMER at 19.
  • Collins holds 319 matches, NWL2023 233 and ENABLE 221, so the lists overlap.

6-letter words with M in position 4 and E in position 5

Endings carry most of the pattern's shape: D closes 91 words, N closes 72, R 65 and S 64. Together those four letters account for 292 of the 324 matches, so naming the last tile rules out most candidates at once. SUMMER, HAMMER, FARMER and WARMER all end in R and share the same fourth-letter anchor.

Opening letters are the weak clue: S begins 33 matches, B 32 and C 30, with F, G and R close behind. A single opening letter still leaves too many candidates, so the ending does more to narrow a solve. THEMES, FRAMES and FLAMES show how different openings can share the same closing S.

Where do the high scores come from?

Tip

AZYMES leads at 20 points, ZIMMER follows at 19, and JAMMED, ZOOMED, OXYMEL and QUEMED each reach 18. Those totals lean on Z, J and X tiles, so the high scores sit on words many players will not recognize.

What should you watch before you play?

Every one of the 324 matches is tournament-legal somewhere, but the lists disagree: Collins carries 319, NWL2023 233 and ENABLE 221. AZYMES and QUEMED sit outside everyday vocabulary, so confirm the word list your game uses before you commit them. For a safer route, stick to common anchors such as FORMER, SUMMER, SEEMED and THEMES.
