How to use this page

To use this page, start with the search box. Type the letters on your rack, add a question mark for each blank, and press search. The tool keeps this page's constraint and returns only the words you can spell. Below the box, the full list is arranged with common words first, followed by the quick facts, definitions and related lists.

Tips

Most of the time you are not building a word in empty space but playing through a letter already on the board. That is where a list like this one earns its keep. Find the letter you need to play through, then filter these words with the contains box so only the ones with that letter remain. The best plays are usually the ones where the board letter sits in the middle of your word, because that leaves both ends free for future hooks and keeps the premium squares within reach.

Questions

Which nine-letter words starting with E are the most common?

EQUIPMENT, EVERYBODY and EXCESSIVE 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 nine-letter words starting with E you can actually spell from that rack, with scores.
