7-letter words with S as the 3rd letter and G as the 4th letter

The fixed middle is _ _ S G _ _ _: two letters come before S and three follow G. DISGUST is the recognizable entry, but DISGOWN also keeps the same middle. The pattern is unusually M-heavy, with seven of the 13 words beginning with M, and only one qualifies as common by frequency, so most candidates are specialist vocabulary rather than everyday guesses.

• Thirteen tournament-dictionary words match the seven-letter pattern.
• Seven begin with M; D is the next most common first letter, with three words.

Which matching words score the most?

MISGAVE, MISGIVE, MISGREW, and MISGROW each score 13 points. DISGOWN and FISGIGS follow at 12, while MISGAGE scores 11.

The top four tie and share the MIS- opening, so choosing among them depends on the letters you hold, not a score gap. BUSGIRL and MISGOES each score 10, making them lower-scoring alternatives when those letters fit your rack.

How widely are these words accepted?

Collins includes 12 of the matches, NWL2023 includes seven, and ENABLE includes five. Those dictionary totals overlap; they are not separate groups to add together. Ten of the words have definitions, but the rest can be difficult to recognize from the spelling alone.

DISGUST is the clearest everyday candidate; many of the other entries are obscure or specialized. A tight letter pattern does not guarantee a familiar play, so check your game's word list before relying on a less familiar word.
