The third-position M and fifth-position I produce 264 tournament-dictionary matches, far more than the nearby rare frames. REMAINS, COMBINE, CAMPING, and VAMPIRE show the range, from ordinary vocabulary to game-ready forms. The endings divide mainly between S and G, which together account for more than half the set.

Words with M third and I fifth

  • There are 264 matching words, including 21 marked common.
  • Seventy-two end in S and 69 end in G.
  • ZOMBIFY tops the score list at 26 points.
  • Two hundred matches have definitions.

Which word shapes fit this frame

This pattern has two strong finishing lanes: 72 matches end in S and 69 end in G. REMAINS, DOMAINS, and MEMOIRS illustrate the first; JUMPING, BOMBING, and CAMPING illustrate the second. If your rack suggests an ING form, that G-ending group is almost as large as the plural-like S group.

Which matches stand out on a rack

ZOMBIFY scores 26, followed by JIMMINY and JUMPILY at 21 each. The contrast matters: the highest number belongs to an unusual word, while JUMPING and CAMPING are instantly readable forms. With 21 common matches, you have more familiar anchors here than in the small M-and-G or M-and-K patterns.

Scan the last tile before choosing between the two large families. An S can point to REMAINS; a G can complete JUMPING, with the same fixed middle frame.

The tournament lists overlap substantially but do not have identical coverage: Collins includes 257 matches, NWL2023 includes 190, and ENABLE includes 166. Use the recognizable examples for recall, then verify a less familiar candidate against your game’s own list. The common-word count is only 21 despite the much larger total.

The 13 common matches are only a small slice of the 264 total. That is why the most recognizable candidates deserve priority when time is short. REMAINS and COMBINE are easier to retrieve than the specialist high scorers, even though their letters do not dominate the score table.
