Unscrambling PROTEAN gives 177 words from the letters P R O T E A N. 2 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.

Tips
The mix of vowels and consonants in PROTEAN 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
