Type PASTEL into a word game and you have 147 options. The list below shows all of them, sorted by length and then by score, with the very common words marked by a dot. PALEST scores 8 points, the most of any word on the page. The search box keeps the same letters, so you can add a blank with a question mark or swap a tile to see how the possibilities change.

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?
TAPES, PAST and PLEA 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.
