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

The mix of vowels and consonants in DEPARTS is what makes it a productive rack. When your own rack has too many vowels or too many consonants, the list of possible words collapses. A good habit is to play the word that leaves the best leftover tiles, not necessarily the highest score this turn. Keeping one or two vowels, an S, and a blank on the rack sets up a stronger play next time, and over a whole game that adds up to more than any single big word.

Questions
