How many 7-letter words have M third and A sixth?

There are 126 matches. Start with recognizable choices such as SIMILAR, REMOVAL, CAMERAS, and SOMEDAY; each keeps M in position three and A in position six. ADMIRAL and SEMINAR also fit, though their endings show how much variety the pattern allows.

The final letter gives a quick way to narrow the search: L, S, and R together account for 93 entries. Just 12 matches are common by frequency, so the full set reaches well beyond everyday vocabulary. Treat that broader pool as a clue list, not a promise that every word suits your game.

Which matches stand out for word games?

KUMQUAT scores 22 points, ahead of ZYMOSAN at 21 and CUMQUAT at 20. These are strong tile-score candidates, but their less familiar vocabulary makes them poor guesses when you need a word you already know. JAMBEAU and JEMIMAS each score 18.

For a practical search, scan common-looking entries first: SIMILAR, REMOVAL, CAMERAS, SOMEDAY, and NOMINAL. The 7-letter words with M as the 3rd letter and A as the 6th letter span Collins, NWL2023, and ENABLE, and the dictionary counts overlap. Check your game’s word list before playing an unfamiliar entry.
