The fixed pattern is _ _ _ T _ D: the fourth tile is T, and the final tile is D. It produces 273 tournament-list matches, including familiar forms such as UNITED, WANTED, POSTED, and LISTED. The pool is mixed: 51 entries count as common, while 219 have definitions.
6-letter words with T as the 4th letter and D as the 6th letter
- There are 273 matches across the tournament dictionaries.
- UNITED, WANTED, and POSTED are familiar examples that fit the pattern.
- S leads the first-letter counts with 22 matches.
- B, D, P, R, and T each start 20 matching words.
- QUOTED scores 16 points in Scrabble before any board bonuses.
What do the matching words have in common?
Every match ends in D, while T sits in the fourth position. Many familiar examples share a -ted shape: WANTED, POSTED, STATED, TESTED, EDITED, and WAITED. That repeated ending makes the pattern easier to scan, but not every match is a past-tense verb.
The opening letters are unusually balanced. S has 22 matches, while B, D, P, R, and T each have 20. Start with the fixed T and D, then test likely opening letters; UNITED and LISTED show how much the first three tiles can vary.
How should you use this pattern in a word game?
Treat the pattern as a filter, not a guarantee of acceptance. The counts differ by dictionary: ENABLE includes 201 matches, Collins includes 270, and NWL2023 includes 210. The overall total includes words found in at least one of those tournament lists, so check your game's word list before playing an unfamiliar entry.
For a rack or board search, lock T into the fourth space and D into the last. Then compare ordinary candidates such as WASTED, FITTED, and HEATED with less familiar high scorers such as QUOTED. QUOTED reaches 16 points because its Q adds a large tile value; a premium square can change the final play substantially.
This pattern is less common than nearby choices ending in S or R: those T-fourth patterns have 319 and 298 matches. When D is fixed, focus on the first three letters rather than expecting a large set of familiar choices.
