Reading the Letter Pair

The doubled G is the signature of this pattern, and it shows up in AGGIE, EGGED and AGGRO. Most of the familiar words open with a vowel. The fifth box is most often R, E and D, which makes it the quickest place to settle the ending.

A Wordle Tip for This Pattern

Begin with A and E in the first box, because they open the largest groups. If the opener comes back grey, move to the ending and try R in the fifth box. The fixed G 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 with G as the 2nd letter and 5 letter words with G as the 3rd letter.
