C words split neatly down the middle. CO and CA together open 816 of the 1,756 entries, and CH adds 281 more. That concentration helps a solver, and it also lifts the group to an 11.1-point average, the highest of the five letters on this list.
CO and CA open nearly half of the C list
COUNTY, COURSE, COMMON, COMING and COUSIN all begin with CO, the busiest pair at 454 words. CA is next with 362, giving cannot, called, camera and casino.
CH takes third place with 281 words such as change, choose and church. Add CO, CA and CH together and you account for 1,097 entries, close to five in eight of the list.
The soft C that turns into an S sound is rare at the front. CE holds 82 words like center and centre, and CI only 55 like cinema, so a hard C is the safe assumption when you place one.
The QUE ending hides a dozen C words
Only 12 six-letter C words contain a Q, and almost all of them end in QUE: CHEQUE, CAIQUE, CALQUE, CASQUE, CINQUE and CIRQUE among them.
Each of those scores 17 points and is accepted in Collins, NWL and ENABLE, so a Q is less of a burden after a C than after most letters. CLIQUY is the odd one out at 20 points.
How six-letter C words end
- S closes 547 words, nearly a third of the group, and most of them are plurals.
- E ends 199, as in CHANGE, CHOOSE and centre.
- D ends 154 and Y ends 152, giving words like CALLED and COUNTY.
- R ends 150 such as CAMERA and career, so a plain letter is normal at the back.
- Only 19 C words finish with CH, even though CH is the second-biggest opening pair.
Six-letter C words and the 26-point ceiling
COZZES and CUZZES are the joint best at 26 points. Cozzes is safe in NWL, ENABLE and Collins, while cuzzes is missing from ENABLE.
Two Collins-only entries come next at 23: CHEQUY and CZAPKA. Czapka is the rare case of a Z sitting straight after a C.
COCCYX is the pick for a tighter rack, scoring 22 with two Cs and an X and staying legal everywhere. In total, 19 C words reach 20 points and only 2 pass 25.
Anagrams and doubles in the C list
Note
728 of the 1,756 C words share their letters with another six-letter entry, and 285 hold a side-by-side repeat. Doubles let you spend two copies of one tile in a single move.
Questions people ask
How many six-letter words start with C?
Collins lists 1,756 six-letter words beginning with C. NWL accepts 1,335 of them and ENABLE accepts 1,294, so 421 are Collins-only. Just 271 count as common English.
What is the average Scrabble score of a six-letter C word?
It is 11.1 points, the highest of the five busy letters. B is next at 11.0, then D at 10.0, S at 9.8 and A at 9.4, so C words carry a small but steady edge.
Which six-letter C words use a Q?
Twelve do, and nearly all end in QUE, such as cheque, caique, calque and cirque. They all score 17 points and are accepted in every main word list.
What is the highest-scoring six-letter C word?
Cozzes and cuzzes tie at 26 points. Cozzes is accepted in every main dictionary, but cuzzes is absent from ENABLE, so check which list your app uses.
Do more six-letter C words end in S or Y?
S wins by a distance, closing 547 of the 1,756 words against 152 for Y. E is the runner-up among the other endings with 199, ahead of D at 154.
