The pattern is _A____G: A stays in the second slot and G closes every answer. Everyday verbs dominate the examples, from WALKING and PASSING to WARNING and DANCING, but the full set reaches beyond common vocabulary. Only 81 matches count as common by frequency, so treat the total as a tournament-word pool rather than a list of familiar terms.

Pattern facts at a glance

462 tournament-dictionary words fit the pattern _A____G.
Collins includes 451 matches, compared with 357 in NWL2023.
ENABLE includes 336 matches, the smallest of these three dictionary counts.
391 entries have definitions; 81 qualify as common by frequency.
JAZZING leads the scoring examples at 33 points.

How many 7-letter words have A second and G seventh?

There are 462 matches, and the fixed final G puts this group between several larger ending patterns. With A second, G last appears in 462 words, fewer than the 2,136 ending in S and the 514 ending in E, but more than the 385 ending in R or 378 ending in D. That makes G neither the broadest option nor the rarest among these comparisons.

Starting letters offer another way to narrow a solve. B leads with 39 matches, followed by H with 38, W with 35, and C with 32. Try those opening letters before working through less frequent options; familiar candidates include BANKING, HANGING, WARNING, and CALLING.

Which matches stand out for Scrabble scoring?

JAZZING scores 33 points in the scoring examples, ahead of VAXXING at 25 and JACKING at 21. Those figures make JAZZING the standout premium-letter play in this pattern, though a board's bonus squares and cross-words affect the final turn score.

For 7-letter words with A as the 2nd letter and G as the 7th letter, don't assume every match is an everyday verb just because TALKING and WAITING are easy to recognize. Only 81 are common by frequency, and the dictionary totals differ across Collins, NWL2023, and ENABLE. Check your game's word list before relying on an obscure entry.

Questions people ask

How many common words match A second and G last?

There are 81 common matches with A in the second position and G at the end. Familiar examples include TALKING, WAITING, and WALKING, but the full set also includes many less familiar tournament words.

What is the highest-scoring word in this pattern?

JAZZING is the highest-scoring example at 33 points. VAXXING follows at 25, and JACKING scores 21. These are word scores; premium squares and any cross-words can change a play's total on the board.

Which starting letter has the most matches?

B is the most common starting letter, with 39 matches. H is close behind at 38, while W has 35 and C has 32. BANKING is one familiar B example in the pattern.
