This page lists every one of the 10 five-letter words starting with K and ending in T in our dictionary. Each word links to its own unscramble page when one exists, and the score badge shows its value with classic tiles. Common words come first, so KARAT, KNELT and KAPUT sit near the top while the rare entries wait further down. If you are holding a specific rack, type it into the search box and the list narrows to the words you can actually play.

How to use this page

Start by scanning the common words at the top; they are the ones most likely to be accepted and remembered. Then check the quick facts for the highest-scoring options. If you have a rack in front of you, the search box applies this page's constraint to your letters and returns only what you can play.

Tips

Every score badge on this page is the sum of the tile values in the word, with no board multipliers applied. Classic tiles value the common letters at one point and the awkward letters higher, up to ten for Q and Z. Blank tiles score nothing. The actual points you earn depend on where the word lands, so a modest word on a double-word square beats a high-value word on plain squares. Use the badges to compare words quickly, then check the board for the multiplier that changes the picture.
