Questions people ask

What are some common words with R third and G sixth?
THROUGH, FOREIGN, STRANGE, SPRINGS, and GARBAGE are recognizable examples in this pattern. Only 12 of the 100 matches count as common by word frequency, so many entries are less familiar. Check the fixed positions before using a candidate: the pattern is _ _ R _ _ G _.
Which final letters are most common in these words?
S is the most frequent final letter, appearing in 32 matches; E follows with 30. Examples ending in S include SPRINGS and STRINGS, while FOREIGN and GARBAGE end in E. Together, those two endings account for most of the set's most frequent final-letter choices.
Are all 100 words accepted in every word game?
No, dictionary coverage varies by game. Collins contains 99 matches, compared with 70 in NWL2023 and 66 in ENABLE, out of 100 overall. These source totals overlap, so they are not separate groups to add together. Check the word list used by your game.
