About this word list
Our dictionary returns 709 matches — a deep pool for anagram practice, crossword solving, and vocabulary building. High-value letter density matters: roughly 94 results here include at least one premium tile worth 8–10 points on its own. Common endings in this list include -LY, -ER, -KE, -GLY — patterns that let you extend words already on the board. For quick wins, prioritise whizzingly (38 pts) — they lead this list on raw tile value. While Wordle uses a smaller answer list, studying broader dictionary patterns here helps you eliminate impossible guesses faster. In tournament Scrabble, knowing word counts and score distributions for common patterns saves seconds per turn — seconds that add up over 30+ games. With a vowel ratio of 0.32, this list skews consonant-heavy — keep extra vowels on your rack when targeting these words.

Strategy & study tips
A deep result pool supports spaced repetition — study one length bucket per day rather than cramming the full scroll in a single sitting. About 47% of sampled words include a high-value letter (Q, X, Z, J, or K) — useful when planning premium-square plays.
When the board already shows the first letters, this page validates every 10-letter continuation before you spend a turn. Internal links point to Pattern Finder, Crossword Solver, Anagram Solver, and Wordle Solver — each tool adds interactivity this static list intentionally omits. Anchor words: highest scorer WHIZZINGLY, longest WHIZZINGLY. Build mnemonics around those two before expanding into the full 709 matches.

Frequently asked questions
- How is this different from “words starting with”?
- The general starting-with hub includes every length. This page locks word size (e.g. only 5-letter words starting with S), which matches Wordle and crossword slots more closely.
- How many words match this pattern?
- Our dictionary contains 709 words matching this pattern. The average length is 10 letters and the average Scrabble score is 22.6 points. The highest-scoring entry shown is whizzingly (38 pts).
- Are there high-scoring words in this list?
- 94 words in this sample include premium letters (Q, X, Z, J, or K). These are strong candidates for double- and triple-letter square plays in Scrabble.
- Is this page useful for Wordle?
- Yes. Wordle uses 5-letter words, so length-filtered lists and pattern pages help you validate guesses and build a mental dictionary of allowed combinations before you play.
- Are these valid Scrabble words?
- Yes. Results are drawn from a standard English word list that aligns closely with the official Scrabble dictionary. All displayed words are accepted in competitive Scrabble play.
- Can I use these words in Words with Friends?
- Most Scrabble-valid words are also legal in Words with Friends. The two games use slightly different word lists, but the overlap is large. Use this list as a solid starting point for either game.
- How are the point scores calculated?
- Scores are the raw sum of standard Scrabble letter values (A=1, B=3, C=3, D=2 … Z=10) without board multipliers. Higher-scoring words contain rarer letters like Q, X, or Z.
- Can I combine multiple pattern filters?
- Yes. Use the Pattern Finder to combine starts-with, ends-with, contains, exact length, include letters, and exclude letters in a single search — the same engine that powers these curated lists.
- How many words are in the dictionary?
- The dictionary contains over 350 000 English words, covering everything from common 2-letter words to rare 15-letter entries, with proper nouns and abbreviations excluded.
