How to use this page
Use this list in two ways. Browse it to learn the words that contain both C and H, common ones first, or search it by typing your own letters, with question marks for blanks, to see only the words you can make. Every word shows its classic tile score, and linked words open a page with all their sub-words.
Tips
A word list is also a study tool. Reading through the five-letter words containing both C and H once or twice is enough to make the unusual ones familiar, and familiarity is what lets you spot a play under time pressure. Try covering the list and writing down as many as you can, then compare. Use the definitions on this page to attach meaning to the words you did not know, since a word with a meaning sticks far better than a string of letters. Return to the list after a few days and repeat.
Questions

CHECK, WHICH and WATCH are among the most familiar. The list is sorted with everyday words first, and the very common ones carry a small dot, so you can read the top of the page and skip the obscure entries at the bottom.
Can I search this list with my own letters?
Yes. Type your letters into the search box at the top of the page, using a question mark for a blank, and the tool will show only the five-letter words containing both C and H you can actually spell from that rack, with scores.
