Every word in this list has four letters and contain the letter E. We count 1,337 of them, with 892 in common use. The score shown on each chip uses classic tile values, so JEEZ at 20 points is the one to remember when a premium square is open. Words with their own page, such as JOKE, link through to a full breakdown of the shorter words hidden inside them.
How to use this page
The quickest route to an answer is the search box: enter your letters, use a question mark for a blank, and the list shrinks to the playable words. If you would rather browse, the chips below are sorted with common words first, and the related links lead to neighbouring lists for other letters and lengths.
Tips
The list puts common words first for a reason: they are the ones an opponent is least likely to challenge and the ones you will remember next time. When two plays score about the same, prefer the common word. Save the rare entries for situations where they are clearly better, such as a triple-word square that only an obscure word can reach. If you are learning vocabulary or solving a puzzle for a newspaper, stick to the very common words marked with a dot; they are the ones the setter almost certainly had in mind.
