The fixed ending makes this a narrow pattern: every match finishes in UT, but only eight entries rank among the top 25,000 English words by frequency. Familiar options include OUTPUT, LAYOUT, WALNUT, and SPROUT; the rest include less common forms such as QIVIUT and MAZOUT.

At a glance: U fifth, T sixth

  • There are 62 matches across ENABLE, Collins, and NWL2023.
  • OUTPUT, LAYOUT, and PEANUT are recognizable examples.
  • Only eight entries count as common by the top-25,000 frequency measure.
  • QIVIUT scores 18 points, the highest score among these words.
  • P opens seven matches, while R and S open six each.

How many 6-letter words have U fifth and T sixth?

There are 62 matches. That is far fewer than the 306 words with E in the fifth position and T last, or the 230 with S fifth and T last. The fixed UT ending trims the choices sharply, so checking the two final tiles first is a quick way to screen a rack or a clue.

The opening letters are spread out rather than dominated by one starter: P leads with seven words, while R and S each start six. OUTPUT, PEANUT, and WALNUT show how varied the first four letters can be, even when the final pair stays fixed.

Which U-fifth, T-last words score well?

QIVIUT leads at 18 points, followed by MAZOUT at 17; both outrank familiar choices such as PAYOUT and BUYOUT, each worth 11. Those scores make the unusual words worth recognizing, but a high tile total does not make an obscure entry easy to place.

The 62 six-letter words with U as the 5th letter and T as the 6th letter include 50 entries with definitions, yet just eight are common by frequency. For play, confirm an unfamiliar word in your game's list: the total combines entries from ENABLE, Collins, and NWL2023, whose coverage differs.

Questions people ask

What is the highest-scoring six-letter word ending in UT with U fifth?
QIVIUT is the highest scorer at 18 points. MAZOUT follows at 17, while familiar choices such as PAYOUT and BUYOUT score 11 each. The top score belongs to an uncommon word, so knowing the tile values does not guarantee an easy board placement.
Which letters start six-letter words with U fifth and T last?
P opens 7 of the 62 words, including PEANUT and PAYOUT, while R and S open 6 each. The spread is wide, so the first letter rarely settles the answer on its own.
How common are six-letter words with U fifth and T last?
Only eight of the 62 matches rank among the top 25,000 English words by frequency. OUTPUT, LAYOUT, and WALNUT are familiar examples, while QIVIUT and MAZOUT are much less common. The pattern is valid across tournament dictionaries, but many entries are not everyday words.
