5-letter words with G as the 2nd letter and E as the 5th letter

This exact arrangement produces 13 matches. By comparison, the same final E paired with O in the second position gives 230 words; A in that slot gives 207. The small G group is a sharply narrowing clue, not a sprawling set of possibilities.

Start by testing the initial letter. AGREE, AGILE, AGGIE, AGATE, AGAVE, and AGAPE all fit the dominant A pattern; OGIVE and NGWEE cover the two other openings. When A is ruled out, those two are the only alternatives in this group.

AGREE and AGILE are common-looking candidates, while NGWEE is the lone N-opening option. The final E never moves.

Which words fit Wordle, and which score highest?

Four of these words appear in the Wordle answer list, and all 13 are allowed guesses. The pattern alone does not distinguish the answer-list entries, so use any confirmed green tiles and eliminated letters to narrow your choice rather than treating a familiar word as confirmed.

AGAZE earns 15 Scrabble points, six more than the 9-point trio AGAVE, OGIVE, and NGWEE. AGAPE is worth 8, while AGREE, AGILE, and AGATE each score 6. Several matches are uncommon, so check your game's word list before playing an unfamiliar entry.
