Every word in this list has nine letters and start with M. We count 1,360 of them, with 557 in common use. The score shown on each chip uses classic tile values, so MAXIMIZED at 30 points is the one to remember when a premium square is open. Words with their own page, such as MODIFYING, link through to a full breakdown of the shorter words hidden inside them.
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
Every score badge on this page is the sum of the tile values in the word, with no board multipliers applied. Classic tiles value the common letters at one point and the awkward letters higher, up to ten for Q and Z. Blank tiles score nothing. The actual points you earn depend on where the word lands, so a modest word on a double-word square beats a high-value word on plain squares. Use the badges to compare words quickly, then check the board for the multiplier that changes the picture.
