5-letter words with G as the 4th letter and A as the 5th letter

Which 5-letter words have G fourth and A fifth?

MANGA, OMEGA, and TONGA are recognizable examples, alongside AMIGA, CONGA, and TAIGA. Their different first three letters show why confirming the final pattern is only part of solving the clue; the opening letters still do the real sorting.

The vocabulary gets less familiar quickly. WAGGA, KANGA, and TARGA also fit, while JIRGA and SAIGA are further options. Of the 37 matches, 28 have definitions, but only three count as common by the frequency measure, so don’t treat every match as everyday vocabulary.

How do these matches work for scores and Wordle?

JIRGA and AJUGA lead the Scrabble scores at 13 points each; CHAGA follows at 11. WAGGA and KANGA score 10 apiece. Those are tile scores before board premiums, so the square beneath a high-value letter can change the turn’s result.

The 5-letter words with G as the 4th letter and A as the 5th letter include three Wordle answers among the 37 matches. The 36 allowed guesses give you a broader set than the answer count alone suggests. Dictionary coverage also varies: Collins, NWL2023, and ENABLE do not accept identical totals, so check your game’s word list before relying on an obscure match.
