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

Five positions remain open, so the starting letter and ending can vary widely. PACKAGE, PASSAGE, and SAVINGS show how familiar words sit beside less common entries. The count includes words found in at least one tournament dictionary: Collins has 130, NWL2023 has 94, and ENABLE has 79, with overlap among those lists.

A quick look at the A-and-G pattern

• 136 entries match the pattern across the tournament dictionaries.
• PACKAGE, PASSAGE, and SAVINGS are among the recognizable examples.
• 87 end in S and 37 end in E, making those endings the clear leaders.
• HAZINGS tops the score ranking at 20 points; ZAMANGS follows at 19.

Why do so many matches end in S?

S is the leading final letter: 87 of the 136 words finish with it, compared with 37 ending in E. That concentration makes the last tile a strong sorting clue, but it does not narrow the first letter much. P leads the opening position with 15 matches, while W has 13.

The familiar S-ending examples include SAVINGS, RATINGS, and SAYINGS. Not every entry is an everyday word, though: just 16 matches fall into the common-word group. For a more precise search, compare the ending as well as the two fixed letters instead of treating every match as equally likely.

Which matches score highest?

HAZINGS is the top scorer at 20 points, with ZAMANGS at 19; WAXINGS, JAWINGS, and GAZINGS each score 18. Those high-value answers are less familiar than PACKAGE, which scores 16. The contrast matters in a board game: the best raw tile score is not always the easiest word to spot or play.

For 7-letter words with A as the 2nd letter and G as the 6th letter, dictionary coverage is a real limitation. Collins includes 130 matches, compared with 94 in NWL2023 and 79 in ENABLE, and the lists overlap. Check your game's word list before committing to an unfamiliar high scorer.
