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

A balanced rack has roughly three vowels and four consonants, and a lopsided rack is the most common reason players get stuck. If you are drowning in vowels, look for the words on this page with the most vowels and use them to reset. If you have too many consonants, a word with a single vowel will do the same job. When you cannot find a decent play, it is often better to swap tiles or play a short word that dumps the surplus than to force a poor score and keep the bad rack.
