6-letter words with T as the 3rd letter and I as the 4th letter

• 184 six-letter entries meet the fixed T-I pattern across tournament word lists.
• M starts 22 matches, A starts 21, and R starts 19.

• SHTICK, COTIJA, and EXTIRP each top the Scrabble scores at 15.

Which letters begin and end these words?

G, E, and S are the leading final letters, with 37, 36, and 34 matches respectively; N follows at 13. When the last letter is unknown, check those three endings first. D appears at the end of just 6 matches, making it a much narrower branch.

First letters are led by M (22), A (21), and R (19), so no single opening dominates. ACTION and ACTIVE give familiar A-starting examples, while NOTICE, NATION, MOTION, and OPTION show other recognizable fits. Use any known edge letter to narrow the candidate set before scanning every word.

The 47 common entries offer a starting point when you want familiar vocabulary. ARTIST, ENTIRE, and RETIRE illustrate how a known ending can separate possible answers, while less familiar options such as EXTIRP require a closer dictionary check.

Which matching words score well in Scrabble?

SHTICK, COTIJA, and EXTIRP score 15 points apiece in Scrabble; UPTICK, FETICH, and CITIFY score 14. The average for this set is 8.4 points, so those six stand well above it. Board multipliers and crossing letters still affect a turn’s total.

Dictionary coverage varies: 176 matches are in Collins, compared with 142 in NWL2023 and 131 in ENABLE. Those counts overlap, so they do not add up to the 184-word pool. Check your game's dictionary before playing an uncertain word.
