A double O in the middle narrows the choices, but the results range from everyday words such as SCHOOL and INDOOR to less familiar entries like KAZOOS and HUZ OOR. Seven entries meet the common-word cutoff. The counts draw on tournament dictionaries, and not every word appears in every game’s accepted list.
The pattern at a glance
- 90 entries have O in both the fourth and fifth positions.
- SCHOOL, REBOOT, LAGOON, and SALOON are recognizable examples.
- KAZOOS and BAZOOM lead the scoring list at 19 points each.
- Words beginning with B, R, S, and U each account for 12 entries.
- The most common final letters are N, S, and K, with 19, 17, and 12 words.
Which double-O words are easiest to spot?
Start with SCHOOL, INDOOR, REBOOT, and LAGOON: each fits the pattern without relying on an obscure spelling. SALOON, MAROON, and BABOON are other familiar choices. These examples show how the fixed OO pair can sit inside very different word shapes.
The endings offer a useful clue when you have one more letter. N is the most frequent final letter, appearing in 19 entries; S follows with 17, then K with 12. Examples include LAGOON, TABOOS, and UNC OOL. Across the opening letters, B, R, S, and U tie at 12 apiece, so the first letter alone does not narrow the set much.
6-letter words with O as the 4th letter and O as the 5th letter
For a strong tile score, KAZOOS and BAZOOM each score 19; HUZOOR and WAZOOS score 18. KAZOOS stands out as a playable word with a high value, while SCHOOL and INDOOR are easier to recognize but do not lead the scoring ranks. The average score across the entries is 10.2.
Dictionary coverage varies: 52 entries appear in ENABLE, 87 in Collins, and 60 in NWL2023. Those totals overlap, so they should not be added together as separate words. Only 7 entries meet the common-word cutoff, and there are no matching Wordle answers. Check your game’s word list before relying on a less familiar entry.
