Definitions

briefly (adverb)
For a short time.

Unscrambling BRIEFLY gives 72 words from the letters B R I E F L Y. 0 of them use every letter, and the rest are shorter words made from a subset of the tiles. The list below is grouped by length, with the full-length anagrams first, then the seven-letter words and below, each with its classic tile score. Change the letters in the box above to solve a different rack.

How to use this page

Read the anagrams first, then the shorter words in descending length. Common words come first within each group, and the definitions section explains the most useful ones.

Tips

Every score here is a plain sum of tile values, so BRIEFLY leads at 15 points because it uses expensive letters. The board changes the arithmetic. A modest word on a double-word square often beats the top scorer on plain squares, and a high-value letter on a triple-letter square can be worth more than an entire extra word. Use the badges to shortlist plays, then look at what the board offers before you commit to a placement, and count the total both ways.

Questions

Is BRIEFLY an anagram of another word?

No. BRIEFLY has no full-length anagram in our dictionary, so every other word on this page is shorter.

What if my rack has a blank?

Add a question mark to the letters in the search box. The tool treats it as any letter and underlines the letter each blank stands in for. You can add up to three blanks.
