6-letter words with R as the 4th letter and G as the 5th letter

This pattern leaves just two open slots: the first three letters and the final letter. That makes the endings especially telling: eight matches finish with E, while four end in S and three in Y. Familiar choices sit beside specialist entries, so use the fixed letters first, then check whether your game accepts the word you want to play.

At a glance: the R-G pattern

• There are 17 qualifying six-letter words in the tournament-dictionary count.
• Four entries rank among the most common English words in the frequency measure.
• Eight matches end in E; S and Y are the next most frequent endings.
• S begins four matches, while C and E each begin three.
• CHARGE and CLERGY lead the listed Scrabble scores at 12 points each.

Which familiar words fit the R-and-G positions?

ENERGY, CHARGE, EMERGE, and CLERGY are the easiest matches to spot at a glance. Each keeps R in the fourth slot and G in the fifth, but the first three letters differ enough to make them useful checks when you have only part of the pattern.

The less familiar options include SPARGE, SPURGE, STORGE, and ANERGY. Several start with S, the most common opening letter in this group; C and E also have a strong showing. Don’t assume a natural-sounding word is accepted everywhere, though: tournament dictionaries overlap, but they do not contain identical entries.

Treat the count as a clue list, not a promise that every word works in your game. Check its word list before committing, especially for rare entries such as AARRGH or GLURGE.
