J is awkward. It is worth eight points with classic tiles and ten with the other common set, but it forms only one two-letter word, JO, and it rarely appears anywhere except the start of a word. That makes it the tile most likely to sit on your rack for several turns. This list is the cure. It includes every word with a J in our dictionary, sorted so the common ones come first. The three- and four-letter entries are worth learning by heart: JAB, JAM, JAW, JET, JIB, JOG, JOT, JUG, JUT and their friends will let you play the J almost anywhere there is an open vowel. Further down you will find the words where J appears in the middle, such as MAJOR and ENJOY, which are handy when you are filling a crossword pattern or building a word off an existing letter on the board.

How to use this page
The list is computed from the full dictionary using the rule described above, so it is complete. Words are shown with their classic tile scores, and any word with a link opens a page of everything its letters can make.
Tips
A blank tile is the most powerful piece on your rack because it stands in for any letter. When you search this list with a blank, the tool underlines the letter the blank replaced so you know which tile to lay down. Spend a blank only when it unlocks a long word or a premium square; using it for a three-letter play is almost always a waste. If you hold two blanks, look for a word from this list that needs both, because a seven-tile play with the bonus outscores nearly everything else.
Questions
Can I search this list with my own letters?
Yes. Type your letters into the search box at the top of the page, using a question mark for a blank, and the tool will show only the words with j you can actually spell from that rack, with scores.
Are all of these words valid in word games?
They are all in the ENABLE list, which most word-game helpers use, but each game publishes its own dictionary. Check any unfamiliar word against the rules of the game you are playing before you rely on it.
