6-letter words with G as the 2nd letter and E as the 6th letter

The pattern is _G___E, with the G fixed in position two and the final letter set to E. Fourteen matches start with A, while just two are common by frequency. IGNORE and IGNITE are familiar examples; many of the other matches are specialist vocabulary, so a familiar-looking pattern does not guarantee a familiar word.

The pattern at a glance

• The list contains 18 six-letter matches, and every one ends in E.
• Fourteen words start with A; IGNORE and IGNITE are familiar examples.
• Two matches meet the common-word cutoff, so most entries are uncommon.
• AGRYZE leads the Scrabble scores at 19 points.
• Collins lists all 18 matches; ENABLE and NWL2023 list nine each.

Why are there only 18 matches?

The fixed G and E leave only four open positions, and the resulting set is strongly tilted toward A: 14 of the 18 words begin with that letter. I and E each start two matches or one match respectively, while U starts the remaining one.

That narrow opening-letter spread explains why familiar options are scarce. IGNORE and IGNITE are easy to recognize, but the other entries include forms such as AGNISE, AGNIZE, and AGRYZE. Only two matches qualify as common by frequency, so treat the pattern as a clue filter rather than a promise of everyday vocabulary.

6-letter words with G as the 2nd letter and E as the 6th letter

For a word puzzle, test the first letter before scanning obscure possibilities: A covers most of the set, and IGNORE or IGNITE are the natural familiar checks. If A is ruled out, the remaining starts are I, E, and U; the counts are small enough to check directly.

For a score-minded play, AGRYZE is the standout at 19 points. AGNIZE, AGRIZE, and AGUIZE each score 16, well above AGRAFE at 10. These are tournament-dictionary entries, but Collins accepts more matches than ENABLE or NWL2023, so check your game's word list before playing an unfamiliar form.
