Every word in this list has eight letters and end in P. We count 121 of them, with 47 in common use. The score shown on each chip uses classic tile values, so HOCKSHOP at 22 points is the one to remember when a premium square is open. Words with their own page, such as WORKSHOP, link through to a full breakdown of the shorter words hidden inside them.
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
Hooks are single letters added to the front or back of an existing word to make a new one, and they are the cheapest way to score in a crowded game. Look through the words on this page for ones that become a different valid word with one more letter, or that can be formed by extending a shorter word already on the board. Suffixes such as S, ED, ER and ING, and prefixes such as RE and UN, do most of the work. A hook lets you play a second word in parallel and collect both scores.
