About this word list
Our dictionary returns 18,469 matches — a deep pool for anagram practice, crossword solving, and vocabulary building. High-value letter density matters: roughly 77 results here include at least one premium tile worth 8–10 points on its own.

Wordle players can use this list to build a mental model of valid pattern words before guessing — especially when narrowing by known greens and yellows. In tournament Scrabble, knowing word counts and score distributions for common patterns saves seconds per turn — seconds that add up over 30+ games. The average vowel-to-consonant ratio here is 0.35, which affects how easily you can form these words from a random seven-tile rack.

Strategy & study tips

Average Scrabble value here is 28.2 points — use that as a floor for acceptable plays when board space is tight. Anchor words: highest scorer TRANQUILIZINGLY, longest TRANQUILIZINGLY.
