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

That pattern leaves a compact set: all 13 entries finish with D, but their first letters are unevenly spread. Nine begin with S, two with T, and one each with A and D. The range runs from SWAYED and SWIPED to less familiar forms such as SWOUND. For comparison, changing the second letter to U while keeping D last gives 265 matches.

Which dictionaries include these words?

Collins includes all 13 matches; ENABLE and NWL2023 include 8 each. That difference matters in tournament play: a word accepted in Collins is not automatically accepted in a game using ENABLE or NWL2023.

Only one entry falls among the top 25,000 English words by frequency, so most are unlikely to come to mind in everyday conversation. The set includes SWOUND, SWALED, and SWEYED alongside SWAYED. Check the word list used at your table before playing an unfamiliar form.
