From the six or seven tiles of CAPTION you can form 112 words. This page is the complete answer, computed against our full dictionary rather than a hand-picked selection: every exact anagram, every shorter word, and the score for each. Words such as TOPIC and ACTION are the familiar ones; further down are rarer entries that are still valid in most games. Definitions for the most useful words follow the list.
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
If your real rack has a blank, add a question mark to the letters in the search box and the tool will show which words the blank unlocks, with the substituted letter underlined. A blank is worth far more than any single tile, so aim it at a long word or a premium square rather than a quick two-letter play. When two words need the blank for different letters, prefer the one where the blank replaces a low-value letter, since the blank itself scores nothing.
Questions
Which of these words are the most common?
TOPIC, ACTION and POINT are among the most familiar. Words in everyday use are sorted first within each length group and the very common ones carry a small dot.
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 has its own dictionary. Check any unfamiliar word against the rules of the game you are playing.
