The fixed pattern is _ _ _ G E _, so the first three letters and final letter remain open. Familiar choices sit beside less common forms: bigger, danger, singer, and finger are easy to recognize, while the full tournament-dictionary set is much broader. The strongest clues often come from the last letter, where D and R lead the pack.

The G-E pattern at a glance

394 entries meet the fixed pattern across tournament dictionaries.
Collins lists 389; NWL2023 has 307, and ENABLE has 284.
Only 60 rank among the top 25,000 English words by frequency.
B leads first letters with 51, followed by L (40) and M (36).
Final D (132), R (110), and S (91) dominate the endings.

Which words fit the G-E pattern?

Among recognizable fits, longer, forget, and budget show how many routes the first three positions allow. Larger and target work too, while oxygen and hunger show that this pattern is not limited to familiar verb endings. The final letter can be D, R, or S in many strong everyday candidates.

B is the most common opening, with 51 matches; L follows at 40, then M at 36. S contributes 31. If your rack suggests one of those openings, use the ending to narrow your search rather than treating G and E as the only useful clues.

Definitions are available for 324 entries, yet the set still reaches well beyond familiar vocabulary. That long tail is a reminder to distinguish a plausible-looking arrangement from a word your game accepts.

Which fits score well in word games?

Judgey, zagged, and zigged top the scoring list at 18 points each before board bonuses. Oxygen and zinged score 17, while zinger reaches 16. Those are point-led choices, not necessarily the easiest words to place; a premium square can change a rack's value more than chasing a rare letter blindly.

Dictionary coverage differs: Collins has 389 matches, NWL2023 has 307, and ENABLE has 284, with overlap between lists. A word accepted in one source can fail in another, so check your game's word list before committing. Only 60 entries are common by frequency, making this a tournament-oriented search rather than a shortlist of everyday vocabulary.

Questions people ask

What are some common words with G fourth and E fifth?

Examples include longer, forget, budget, larger, target, singer, and finger. The pattern fixes only positions four and five, so the opening three letters still vary widely. B is the most frequent first letter in this set, with 51 matches, ahead of L and M.

Are these six-letter words accepted in every game?

No. The matches come from overlapping tournament dictionaries, and coverage differs: Collins has 389, NWL2023 has 307, and ENABLE has 284. A word appearing in one list may not be accepted in another, so check the rules used by your game before playing an unfamiliar form.

Which word in this pattern scores highest?

Judgey, zagged, and zigged score 18 points each before board bonuses. Oxygen and zinged follow at 17. Premium squares can change the final total, but comparing the base letter scores gives you a quick way to judge candidate plays before placing tiles.
