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.
Questions
Which five-letter words containing both E and H are the most common?
CHECK, HEAVY and CHEAP 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 E and H you can actually spell from that rack, with scores.
