The pattern is _ _ O _ E _, leaving the first two letters and final letter open while O and E stay fixed. Looked, closed, broken, showed, and closer are recognizable matches. Of the 492 words, 89 are tagged common, so the complete set goes well beyond everyday vocabulary.

6-letter words with O 3rd and E 5th: key facts

  • Looked, closed, broken, showed, and closer all fit the pattern _ _ O _ E _.
  • S leads as an opening letter with 83 matches, ahead of P with 57 and C with 52.
  • D ends 150 matches, more than any other letter; S follows at 141, then R at 112.
  • The common-word subset has 89 entries, so many matches are less familiar than looked or frozen.
  • Collins lists 482 matches, compared with 373 in NWL2023 and 348 in ENABLE.

Which starting and ending letters appear most?

Words ending in D lead this pattern, with 150 matches; S and R are also strong endings at 141 and 112. Together, those three endings account for most of the shape you will recognize in examples such as looked, stores, and closer.

S is the leading first letter, but the pattern is not limited to familiar S words: P starts 57 matches and C starts 52. In the third spot, O's 492 matches sit below R at 662, A at 653, N at 615 and I at 544, but above S at 476.

Which matches stand out for scoring?

Boozey tops the scoring list at 20 points, while frozen and zoomed each score 18. Frozen is the more recognizable of those high scorers, and it also shows how a common-looking word can carry a strong tile total.

For 6-letter words with O as the 3rd letter and E as the 5th letter, don’t assume the most familiar answer is the highest scorer: boozey outranks frozen. The neighboring fifth-letter patterns are smaller, with I at 171 matches, A at 105, and T at 101. Check your game’s dictionary before relying on an obscure entry.
