About the Scrabble word finder

Enter the tiles on your rack and this finds every word you can play from them, ranked by what the tiles are worth. A ? stands for a blank, which can become any letter but scores nothing itself.

Each word shows its face value: the sum of its tile values. Longer is not always better — a short word on the right square often beats a long one on plain squares, which is why the list stays sorted by score rather than by length.

Examples

retina?
one blank opens up KERATIN, FAINTER, HAIRNET and hundreds more

an ugly rack — the tool still finds what is playable

Tips

Common questions

How do I enter a blank tile?

Type ? for each blank. Two is the maximum, matching a standard set.

Are these words valid in official play?

They come from ENABLE, which underpins many word games. Tournament play uses TWL or Collins, which differ at the edges — check your game's own dictionary for competition.

Why does a blank score zero?

That is the rule: a blank takes the identity of any letter but carries no point value, in both Scrabble and Words with Friends.
