6-letter words with O as the 4th letter and N as the 6th letter

This fixed pattern leaves the first three letters open, but every match ends in N. R is the most frequent starting letter, with 10 matches; U follows with 8. The set is smaller than its M-fourth and T-fourth siblings, which have 176 and 125 words respectively. Familiar choices sit beside less common entries, so check your game’s dictionary before playing an unfamiliar one.

6-letter words with O as the 4th letter and N as the 6th letter

The dictionary split is uneven: 44 matches appear in ENABLE, 59 in Collins, and 46 in NWL2023. Those totals overlap because a word can occur in more than one list. The overall count includes words found in at least one of these tournament dictionaries, not just the entries shared by all three.

THROWN, HEROIN, LAGOON and SALOON are recognizable examples, while REBORN, UNBORN and MAROON show how many different word shapes fit. The first three letters vary freely, but the fixed O and final N make the pattern easy to verify before you submit a guess.

Which matching words score well?

GAZOON tops the score ranking at 16 points. COJOIN scores 15, followed by ADJOIN at 14; REJOIN and ENJOIN each score 13. THROWN reaches 12, giving you a more familiar option when you want points without relying on the top-scoring entry.

The catch is that the biggest score is not necessarily the safest play: GAZOON is far less familiar than THROWN or LAGOON. Use the score ranking as a prompt, then confirm an unfamiliar word against the rules for your game. For a wider search, compare this pattern with the larger M-fourth and T-fourth groups.
