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

retinas: 256 playable words, best being the seven-letter RETAINS and NASTIER
retina?: one blank opens up KERATIN, FAINTER, HAIRNET and hundreds more
zqxjkbn: an ugly rack — the tool still finds what is playable

Tips

Scores shown are tile face value only. Double- and triple-letter and word squares depend on where you place the word, so add those yourself.
Switch the sort to Words with Friends score if that is the game you are playing — the two use different tile values for about half the alphabet.
Use Advanced options to require a letter you must play through: set "starts with" or "contains" to the board letter you are hooking onto.

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.
