The fixed pattern is ___MI_, leaving the first three letters and the final letter open. COMMIT, SUMMIT, SUBMIT, and PERMIT are familiar fits; ATOMIC and COSMIC take a different route to the same two fixed positions. Only 9 entries rank as common, so the pattern reaches well beyond everyday vocabulary; keep the final position in view, since its distribution is more concentrated than the starting letters.
How many 6-letter words have M 4th and I 5th?
- 110 words match the fixed M-at-position-four, I-at-position-five pattern.
- Collins includes 109, NWL2023 includes 78, and ENABLE includes 68; dictionary membership overlaps.
- Definitions are available for 73 entries.
- COMMIT, SUMMIT, SUBMIT, and PERMIT are recognizable examples.
- COMMIX scores 19, the highest scorer in the set.
Which letters start and end these pattern words?
C leads the starting letters with 13 words, followed by A with 12 and S with 10. The gap between C and A is just one, so a starting C does not narrow the choices much more than an A.
Endings are more concentrated: C closes 28 entries, E 21, S 16, and N 15. When the final square is fixed, test C early. ATOMIC and COSMIC show familiar -ic examples, while COMMIT and SUMMIT demonstrate other ways the pattern can finish.
M is a mid-sized choice among patterns with I in fifth position: T in fourth yields 191 entries, while S yields 108. A nearby fixed letter can change the size of your search pool substantially.
Which 6-letter words with M 4th and I 5th score highest?
COMMIX leads at 19, with CHYMIC at 18; JIMMIE and PREMIX each score 17. These are less familiar than COMMIT or SUBMIT, so score hunting and quick recognition do not always point to the same play.
The 6-letter words with M 4th and I 5th match a pattern, but that does not guarantee every game accepts every entry. Collins has 109 matches, NWL2023 has 78, and ENABLE has 68. Check your game's dictionary before relying on an unfamiliar scorer, then confirm the first three letters and final letter fit your board.
