7-letter words with G as the 2nd letter

With G fixed in the second slot, the opening letter does much of the sorting: 87 of these words begin with A. The set is also dictionary-sensitive: Collins lists 129, compared with 74 in ENABLE and 87 in NWL2023. Just six entries meet the common-word frequency cutoff, so expect plenty of specialist vocabulary among the matches.

Which matches earn the highest tile scores?

Among the highest scorers, AGRYZED leads at 21 points, followed by AGRYZES at 20. AGNIZED, AGRIZED, and AGUIZED each score 18, while AGONIZE reaches 17. These spellings show why a fixed-letter clue can produce answers that are much less familiar than against or ignored.

Treat the score as a board opportunity, not a promise that every game accepts the word. The full set has 133 entries across tournament dictionaries, but only 74 appear in ENABLE. Check your game's word list when a move depends on an unusual spelling.

How do the G-second matches vary by pattern?

A-starting forms dominate: 87 of the 133 matches begin with A, while only 20 begin with E and 15 with I. That makes the first tile a strong sorting clue when your rack leaves several possible openings. Examples include agendas, agitate, and aground.

The endings narrow the search too. Nearly half of the set ends in S, with 47 matches; E and D follow at 20 and 18. Seven-letter words with G as the 2nd letter sit between 118 six-letter matches and 151 eight-letter matches, so changing the required length shifts the pool noticeably.
