Six-letter words with V first and M fourth stand out?
Four entries start VERM: VERMIN, VERMES, VERMIS, and VERMAL. Another cluster uses VAN or VAT before the fixed M, as in VANMAN, VANMEN, VATMAN, and VATMEN.
The spelling cue is more useful than the ending here. Five candidates finish in N, three in S, and two in L, but the remaining two endings occur only once each.
The VERM- run is the most compact memory aid in this small set: VERMIN, VERMES, VERMIS, and VERMAL all place the required M after the same three-letter start. VANMAN and VATMAN show how a different second letter changes the route while keeping the fourth position fixed.
VEHMIC is the scoring pick at 16, but the spelling is less transparent than VERMIN. Keeping those jobs separate prevents a common game mistake: choosing a high-value entry before confirming that its exact letters match the revealed board.
What to try when the frame is fixed
- Check the VERM- family first if the second letter is E.
- Use N as an early ending test; five matches close that way.
- Keep VEHMIC for scoring, not everyday recognition: it leads at 16.
