The pattern is _ _ _ _ R S, so the final pair is fixed while the first four letters do the sorting. Familiar matches include others, offers, orders, powers, and owners. Only 85 of the 586 words rank among the most common English entries, so expect a mix of everyday plurals and less familiar plays.

6-letter words with R as the 5th letter and S as the 6th letter

  • There are 586 matches ending in the fixed letter pair RS.
  • Others, offers, orders, powers, and owners are familiar examples.
  • The most common starting letter is S, with 75 matches; T follows with 42.
  • Hazers, faqirs, vizirs, vizors, vezirs, and wazirs each score 18 points.
  • The counts include tournament-list entries: 577 appear in Collins, 486 in NWL2023, and 459 in ENABLE.

Which starting letters appear most often?

S leads the starting-letter counts at 75, while T has 42 and C has 37. A quick scan of S starters turns up stairs, stairs’ neighbors? No: use the listed examples stairs and starts-like words only when present; stairs is one of the matches, alongside offers and orders from other starting groups.

The 586 total counts words appearing in at least one tournament dictionary, not a sum of the three dictionary totals. That distinction matters: Collins has 577 matches, NWL2023 has 486, and ENABLE has 459, with overlap between their entries. Check your game's word list before relying on an unfamiliar form.

How should you use the RS ending in a word game?

For a rack search, hold R and S at the end and test different four-letter beginnings. Everyday choices such as covers, colors, voters, waters, actors, and rivers show how often the pattern forms plurals or verb forms. The 9.3 average score is modest beside the 18-point top group.

The pattern is broad, but not every entry is familiar: only 85 matches are common by our frequency measure, while 539 have dictionary definitions. If you want a higher-value play, hazers and vizors top the score list at 18; the six-point gap over the 9.3 average makes checking the premium squares worthwhile.

Questions people ask

How many six-letter words have R as the fifth letter and S as the sixth?
There are 586 six-letter words matching the pattern _ _ _ _ R S. Familiar examples include others, offers, orders, powers, and owners. The total counts entries found in at least one of the tournament dictionaries, rather than adding each dictionary's separate count.
Which 6-letter words ending in RS score the most?
Hazers, faqirs, vizirs, vizors, vezirs, and wazirs each score 18 points. Jokers, bazars, mazers, and cizers score 17. These are tile scores before any board-square bonuses, so a premium square can change the final play value.
Are most words with R fifth and S sixth common?
No. The pattern has 586 matches, and 85 are classed as common by our frequency measure. Others, offers, orders, and powers are recognizable examples, but many entries are less familiar. Dictionary coverage also varies: Collins lists 577 matches, compared with 486 in NWL2023.
