How to use this page

Type your letters into the box at the top, including a question mark for any blank, and press search to filter this list to the words you can spell. Or read the list as it is: common words come first, scores are shown on each chip, and any word with a link has its own page of sub-words and anagrams.

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.
