The pattern is A _ _ G _ _ _, so every answer keeps A in the opening spot and G in the middle. Only 2 matches meet the common-word cutoff, making familiar anchors like ALIGNED and ANAGRAM stand out among many less everyday forms. The dictionary counts also differ: a word accepted in one tournament list may not appear in another.

At a glance: the A _ _ G _ _ _ pattern

  • There are 30 tournament-dictionary matches for this letter pattern.
  • Collins recognizes 29; NWL2023 recognizes 22, and ENABLE recognizes 21.
  • Only 2 entries meet our common-word cutoff.
  • S is the most frequent final letter, appearing on 11 words.
  • ALIGNED, ANAGRAM, and ALIGHTS are among the recognizable examples.

Which endings show up most often?

S leads by a clear margin: 11 words end with it. L follows with 4, while E appears at the end of 3. That makes the final S a useful pattern clue, but it does not narrow the list to familiar vocabulary; many matches are specialized or uncommon.

The examples show several different shapes. ALIGNED and ALIGNER share the opening sequence, while ANAGRAM and ANAGOGE put different endings on a similar run of letters. ALIGHTS offers a more familiar route to the pattern, with G fixed in the fourth position.

For Scrabble, AZYGOUS and AZYGIES tie for the top score at 20 points each. APOGAMY follows at 15, then AMYGDAL at 14 and AUFGABE at 13. The Y and Z in the leaders are the scoring edge; the fixed A and G are not the high-value tiles.

Note

Only 2 of these 30 words meet the common-word cutoff, so expect obscure vocabulary alongside familiar entries. Check your game's word list: Collins, NWL2023, and ENABLE do not contain identical sets.
