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

The pattern is _ _ _ S _ N, and it produces a mix of familiar words and less common entries. PERSON, SEASON and REASON are easy to spot; JIMSON and KAMSIN are more specialized. Only 16 matches rank among the top 25,000 English words by frequency, so a recognizable opening can quickly give way to tougher choices.

The pattern at a glance

• 63 tournament-dictionary words fit the pattern _ _ _ S _ N.
• PERSON, SEASON and REASON are familiar examples with different first three letters.
• P leads the starting letters with 11 matches; G and T each start 6.

• Only 16 matches are common by the top-25,000 word-frequency measure.

Which matches are easiest to recognize?

PERSON, SEASON and REASON are strong first checks when the pattern is still open. Each places S fourth and N last, but their first three letters differ, so your known letters can narrow the choices quickly.

LESSON, COUSIN, POISON and CHOSEN add familiar alternatives. The full set has 39 entries with dictionary definitions, while the common-word count is just 16; expect the remaining matches to include more specialist vocabulary and names.

How do the dictionaries and scores compare?

Collins includes all 63 matches, compared with 46 in NWL2023 and 43 in ENABLE. The difference matters in tournament play: a Collins entry is not automatically accepted in an NWL2023 or ENABLE game, so check the word list your game uses.

JIMSON scores 15 points in Scrabble, ahead of JETSON at 13 and KAMSIN at 12. Those are letter-value totals before board bonuses. The 6-letter words with S as the 4th letter and N as the 6th letter are not Wordle answers or allowed guesses, so use this pattern for word-list and tile puzzles instead.
