This page lists them all, grouped by length so you can see at a glance whether a long play is available or whether a shorter word is the best you can do. Scores use classic tile values.

Start at the top for the longest and highest-scoring words, work down for shorter plays, and use the search box to test variations with a blank or a different letter.

Tips

If you already know a few letters of the answer and their positions, the word finder is faster than reading this list. Enter a pattern with question marks for the unknown letters and only the fitting words appear. For a daily five-letter puzzle the five-letter finder does the same thing with cues for known, misplaced and excluded letters. Both tools share the dictionary used on this page, so the answers always agree with the lists you find here, whichever route you take.
