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

The fixed ending narrows the search fast: every match has the pattern ___GI. FUNGI and CORGI are the most familiar examples, while the remaining options include words such as RANGI, SHOGI, and LUNGI. Only one match is classified as common, so expect a compact list with plenty of specialist vocabulary.

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

• Fourteen tournament-dictionary words fit the pattern ___GI.
• T is the most frequent first letter, appearing in TANGI, TRAGI, and THAGI.
• FUNGI, SHOGI, HONGI, HANGI, WONGI, and THAGI each score 9 points.
• Only one match is common, and one dictionary-listed match is a Wordle answer.

What stands out among words ending in G and I?

FUNGI and CORGI are the easiest entries to recognize, but they do not lead the score list together: FUNGI scores 9, while CORGI scores 8. SHOGI, HONGI, HANGI, WONGI, and THAGI also reach 9 points. The average score across the set is 7.4.

The first letters are unusually concentrated in a small group: three words begin with T, while H, L, and S each start two. The other four starting letters appear once apiece: A, C, F, and R. That makes TANGI, TRAGI, and THAGI worth checking before trying a less likely opening letter.

Where do these ___GI words work?

Collins includes all 14 matches; NWL2023 includes 8, and ENABLE includes 5. Those dictionary counts overlap, so they are not separate groups to add together. FUNGI and CORGI are safer starting points for recognition, but the other entries can depend on which word list your game accepts.

Exactly one match appears among dictionary-listed Wordle answers, and all 14 are in the allowed-guess count. That distinction matters: an accepted guess is not automatically an answer. The answer identity is not specified here, so use the pattern to narrow your board rather than treating every match as a likely solution, and check your game's word list before playing an unfamiliar entry.
