This page lists every one of the 414 five-letter words containing both D and R 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 DRINK, AWARD and DIRTY 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
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.
