Reading the Letter Pair

F and G are both consonants, so the open boxes usually carry the vowels, as in FIGHT, FOGGY and FUGUE. Most of the familiar words have a vowel in the second box. The fifth box is most often Y, T and E, which makes it the quickest place to settle the ending.

A Smart Way to Use Both Letters

The second box is the biggest unknown, and U, I and O are the strongest letters to test. After that, test Y in the fifth box, since it is the single most common final letter here. The fixed F and G do a lot of the work, so spend your guesses on the three open boxes. For a wider view, see 5 letter words starting with F and 5 letter words with G as the 3rd letter.
