7-letter words with G as the 3rd letter and R as the 7th letter

This pattern fixes two positions but leaves the first, second, fourth, fifth, and sixth letters open. That still produces a compact set: only 77 words qualify, compared with 347 when A takes the third slot and R stays last. The examples range from everyday words such as FIGHTER and LIGHTER to less familiar entries such as SIGNIOR.

How many 7-letter words have G third and R last?

There are 77 tournament-dictionary matches. The contrast with nearby patterns is striking: A in the third position with final R has 347 matches, while keeping G third and changing the final letter to S yields 426. The ending R is shared across this page’s entire set, so the third-letter choice does much of the narrowing.

The first letters are spread rather than dominated by one starter. F and L lead with seven words apiece; B, R, and S each begin six. That makes the opening letter a useful next filter when a puzzle gives you another clue.

Which G-third, R-last words score highest?

JUGGLER, JAGGIER, JOGGLER, and JIGGIER tie at 16 points, the top score among these examples. JUGULAR follows at 15, and FIGHTER scores 14. The J-led words stand out because that high-value opening letter does more work than simply adding another common vowel or consonant.

The 7-letter words with G as the 3rd letter and R as the 7th letter are not all equally familiar: only five count as common, although 58 have definitions. Dictionary coverage also varies: ENABLE includes 55, Collins includes 75, and NWL2023 includes 62. Check your game’s word list before relying on an unfamiliar entry; the three dictionary counts overlap and do not add up to the total.
