Here is the complete list of five-letter words starting with MY: 10 words in total. We sort common words to the top because they are the ones you are most likely to be looking for, whether you are solving a puzzle or checking a play. Words such as MYTHS and MYRRH lead the way. If you need something more specific, the search box accepts your own letters with question marks for blanks and applies this page's constraint automatically.
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.
