Which 6-letter words have O second and T sixth?

Start with familiar options when the crossing letters allow them: MOMENT, FORGET, BOUGHT, HONEST, FOREST, and POCKET all fit. COMBAT, ROCKET, TOILET, and YOGURT offer more recognizable routes through the same pattern, with T fixed in the final square.

The opening letter can narrow the search quickly. C begins 29 matches, including COMBAT, COMMIT, COVERT, and COHORT. D has 15; B, F, and M each have 13. If your first letter is fixed, those counts make C the richest place to scan, not a guarantee that a particular answer fits.

The 172-word total includes entries found in at least one tournament dictionary. Coverage differs by list: 164 appear in Collins, 116 in NWL2023, and 103 in ENABLE. Those counts overlap, so they should not be added together. Check your game's dictionary when a less familiar candidate matters.
