This pattern leaves a compact set: every answer has six letters before its final E, and only 20 words qualify. The opening letter narrows the choices quickly: 15 begin with A, three with E, and two with I. None ranks among the top 25,000 English words by frequency, so expect a specialist word-game list rather than everyday vocabulary.

At a glance: the G-and-E pattern

  • All 20 words have G in position two and E in position seven.
  • AGONIZE, AGATIZE, AGENIZE, and EGOTIZE each score 17 points.
  • The first letter is A in 15 words, E in three, and I in two.
  • Collins lists all 20; NWL2023 lists 13 and ENABLE lists 11.

Which words match this unusual pattern?

AGITATE and IGNOBLE are among the more recognizable matches. AGITATE starts with A, while IGNOBLE starts with I; both still place G second and finish with E.

AGONIZE and AGONISE show two spellings of a related word in the set. The Z spelling also reaches 17 points, while the S spelling appears among the 20 matches without making the top-score group.

The first-letter split is lopsided: A accounts for 15 matches, while E and I account for five together. If you have a starting-letter clue, test A first; EGOTIZE and IGARAPE cover the less common openings.

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

The four 17-point leaders are AGONIZE, AGATIZE, AGENIZE, and EGOTIZE. AGRAFFE follows at 14, so the top end is concentrated in four spellings rather than spread evenly across the list.

This is a narrow pattern, not a list of common guesses: none of its matches falls within the top 25,000 English words by frequency. For a game, treat an unfamiliar entry as a dictionary check, not as a likely everyday answer.

Dictionary coverage differs: Collins has 20 matches, compared with 13 in NWL2023 and 11 in ENABLE. Check your game's word list before playing a word that appears in Collins but not in your chosen tournament list.
