Every word in this list has eight letters and contain the letter I. We count 15,464 of them, with 6,709 in common use. The score shown on each chip uses classic tile values, so JAZZLIKE at 37 points is the one to remember when a premium square is open. Words with their own page, such as QUICKEST, link through to a full breakdown of the shorter words hidden inside them.
How to use this page
This page works as both a reference and a tool. As a reference, it lists every word that contain the letter I, sorted by familiarity. As a tool, it accepts your own letters in the search box and returns the subset you can play, with scores. The related links at the end cover neighbouring letters and lengths.
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.
