6-letter words with G as the 4th letter and R as the 6th letter

The pattern fixes two tiles: G sits in position four, and R closes the word. That leaves three open letters, so the matches range from everyday choices such as BIGGER and HUNGER to less familiar entries. Use the examples to match a clue, then weigh an unfamiliar word against the list your game enforces.

6-letter words with G as the 4th letter and R as the 6th

• 129 tournament-dictionary entries match the fixed fourth-G, final-R pattern.
• Collins includes 127 matches, compared with 98 in NWL2023 and 93 in ENABLE.
• Only 25 of the 129 entries count as common.
• ZINGER leads the Scrabble scores at 16 points.

Which familiar words fit the pattern?

LONGER, LARGER, and BIGGER are easy starting points when you know the final letters but not the whole word. Each has G in the fourth slot and R at the end, while the first three letters distinguish the answer.

Several other recognizable matches share clusters such as -NGER: SINGER, FINGER, HUNGER, and LINGER. DANGER and RANGER fit too. The endings look alike, but the opening letters narrow the possibilities quickly.

The initial-letter counts also give a useful clue: L heads the group with 19 matches, while B follows on 17. If your first tile is known, those two starts are more productive checks than guessing at random.

How do scores and dictionary coverage compare?

ZINGER is the standout scorer at 16 points. That makes it a more valuable play than a familiar low-value option such as SINGER, though the board layout still determines the points you actually earn.

The 129-word total is a union across tournament dictionaries, not a promise that every game accepts every entry. Collins carries 127 of them, NWL2023 98, and ENABLE 93; 101 entries have definitions, while just 25 count as common. Check your game's word list before committing to an obscure match.

For a close comparison, 209 six-letter words have G fourth and S last, compared with 129 ending in R. The R pattern is narrower, so test the final tile early when a puzzle leaves that position open.
