The pattern fixes the second letter as U and the final letter as D, while leaving the other four positions open. TURNED, BURIED, FUNDED, and GUIDED show how many entries are ordinary past-tense forms. The dictionary counts differ: the matches include 207 ENABLE words, 257 Collins words, and 223 NWL2023 words.

At a glance: 265 matches

  • There are 265 qualifying six-letter words, and 35 rank among the commonest English words.
  • The first letter B leads with 35 entries; P follows with 24, then F with 22.
  • A total of 215 matches have definitions, so dictionary inclusion does not guarantee an everyday word.
  • No matching entries are Wordle answers or allowed guesses.

6-letter words with U as the 2nd letter and D as the 6th letter

The 265 matches make this a narrower pattern than A, O, or E in the second position: those letters paired with final D have 462, 448, and 442 matches. U still beats I, which has 293. That makes U a productive clue, but not the most common vowel to test.

The final D is fixed across every match, so focus your guesses on the first and middle letters. B is the strongest opening, with 35 options; P and F are the next most frequent starts. TURNED and PULLED are recognizable examples, while QUOTED and JUDGED offer different openings and middle-letter shapes.

Which entries stand out for word games?

FUZZED leads the listed letter scores at 28, followed by BUZZED and MUZZED at 27 each. The repeated Z accounts for much of that edge; JUMPED and JUNKED score 18 apiece without relying on doubled Zs.

For a practical starting point, try familiar matches such as PUSHED, BURNED, or SUITED before testing obscure forms. The pattern has 35 common entries, but most matches are not common vocabulary, and none are Wordle answers. 6-letter words with U as the 2nd letter and D as the 6th letter are therefore better treated as a precise clue list than a Wordle answer pool.

Questions people ask

How many six-letter words have U second and D last?
There are 265 six-letter matches with U in position two and D in position six. The count covers words present in at least one of ENABLE, Collins, or NWL2023, so the three dictionary totals overlap rather than add together.
What is the highest-scoring word in this pattern?
FUZZED has the highest listed letter score, at 28 points. BUZZED and MUZZED follow at 27 each, while JUMPED and JUNKED score 18. The doubled Z helps explain why the first three dominate the score ranking.
Are any of these words Wordle answers?
No matching words appear in the Wordle answer list, and there are no allowed guesses for this pattern. TURNED, PULLED, and PUSHED are recognizable matches, but none is included among the answers represented here.
