Use ? for unknowns

Fourteen words put F first and G third, and FIGHT is the only one in ordinary use. Everything else is a dictionary entry.

Why F First and G Third Comes Down to One Word

U takes the second box in six of the fourteen, forty three percent, and O follows on four. Neither branch holds a word you would produce unprompted.

FIGHT is alone in the I branch and it is the answer far more often than the count suggests. Play it first and treat the rest as a checklist.

What Sits Behind FIGHT on the F and G Page

FUGUE is the next most reachable, being a musical form. FAGOT, FOGEY and FUGAL are real but unlikely, and FOGIE, FUGIE, FUGIO and FOGLE would only turn up in a word game.

  • FIGHT
  • FUGUE
  • FOGEY
  • FAGOT
  • FUGAL

Doubled G Letters in F and G Words

Three words repeat the G, giving FAGGY, FOGGY and FUGGY. All three end in Y and all three differ only in the second box, so they behave as one entry with three vowels attached.

Guessing on an F and G Page

E closes five of the fourteen and Y another four. Between them they take nine of the page, so the last box is the cheapest thing to test after FIGHT has been ruled out.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is FIGHT really the only common word

Effectively yes. FUGUE is known but specialised, and nothing else here is vocabulary most people carry.

What is a FOGEY

An old fashioned or fussy person. It sits in the O branch alongside FOGGY and FOGIE.

Do FAGGY and FUGGY differ in meaning

They are separate entries with different senses, and they differ only in the second box. Both are word game entries rather than everyday words.
