The pattern is T _ _ _ E _, leaving the second, third, and fourth letters open. Familiar matches include TURNED, TRAVEL, TARGET, TICKET, and TURKEY; the full set also includes less familiar tournament entries. Only 62 of the 415 words rank among the top 25,000 English words by frequency, so many matches are specialist vocabulary rather than everyday choices.

At a glance: T _ _ _ E _

  • The pattern has 415 matches, with three middle positions left open.
  • 62 matches are common by our frequency cutoff; TURNED, TRAVEL, TARGET, and TICKET are familiar starting points.
  • Dictionary totals differ: 283 ENABLE, 412 Collins, and 297 NWL2023 matches.
  • TIZZES and TUZZES each score 24 points; TOWZED reaches 19.

6-letter words with T as the 1st letter and E as the 5th letter

The pattern has 415 matches, more than T with A in fifth place (125) or T with I there (113). The comparison makes E a notably productive fifth letter for T: both alternatives trail this pattern. Looking across first letters with E fixed fifth, S has 740 matches and R has 371; T's 415 falls between them.

Endings reinforce the skew: 127 matches end in D, 109 in S, and 97 in R, while only nine end in E. The fifth-position E does not predict the final letter. Lock the first and fifth letters, then use known middle letters to narrow the remaining candidates.

Which T-and-E matches score highest?

TIZZES and TUZZES lead at 24 points apiece; TOWZED follows at 19. TOLZEY scores 18, while THYMEY scores 17, ahead of TEAZED, TOAZED, and TOUZED at 16. High scores cluster in unusual spellings, not familiar choices such as TURNED or TARGET, so the most recognizable answer is not necessarily the strongest scorer.

Dictionary coverage is the main limitation: Collins includes 412 matches, compared with 297 in NWL2023 and 283 in ENABLE. A word accepted in one list may be absent from another, so check your game's dictionary before committing to an unusual scorer. For a clue solve, start with familiar matches and test less common candidates only after confirming the middle letters.

Questions people ask

How many of these six-letter words end in D?
127 of the 415 matches end in D, making D the most frequent final letter in this pattern. S is next with 109, followed by R with 97. The E in the clue is in fifth position, so it does not require E to be the final letter.
Which dictionary has the most T-first, E-fifth matches?
Collins has the most, with 412 matches. NWL2023 includes 297, and ENABLE includes 283. The overall total is 415, so dictionary coverage differs; check the word list used by your game before relying on a less familiar candidate.
What are the highest-scoring words in this pattern?
TIZZES and TUZZES are the top scorers at 24 points each. TOWZED follows at 19, then TOLZEY at 18 and THYMEY at 17. These high-value options are less familiar than words such as TURNED and TARGET.
