Which words end in -AGE?
Ten do: WAFTAGE, WAINAGE, WANTAGE, WARPAGE, WASTAGE, WATTAGE, WEBPAGE, WEFTAGE, WINDAGE and WORDAGE. Most are nouns built from a stem plus -AGE, such as WASTE, WARP and WORD.
WEBPAGE leads on familiarity and scores 15. WAFTAGE and WEFTAGE make 14, while WASTAGE and WATTAGE make 11 each.
The -AGE group is the more familiar half of the list. It holds WEBPAGE, WASTAGE and WATTAGE, which most players recognise, whereas the -NGS plurals lean on Collins.
What are the -NGS words, and what else is left?
Ten end in -NGS. Nine of them are plurals of -ING nouns, among them WADINGS, WAVINGS, WAXINGS and WOOINGS, and WAYANGS is the exception. Their first four letters are the stem of a verb like WAX, WAVE or WOO.
WAXINGS makes 18 thanks to the 8-point X. ENABLE accepts just 12 of the 26 words in the whole pattern, which is under half, so these plurals suit Collins best.
Six words fit neither ending. WARDOGS, WEBLOGS and WIGWAGS end in S, WENDIGO and WINDIGO end in O, and WHEENGE ends in E.
The six outliers
Lock the last three letters first: -AGE, -NGS or one of the six singletons. The fourth letter then separates the words inside each group.
