About this word list
Our dictionary returns 351 matches — a deep pool for anagram practice, crossword solving, and vocabulary building. Among these entries, 20 contain rare tiles that can dramatically boost your score when played on double- or triple-letter squares. Suffix patterns such as -ES, -ED, -SS, -ESS appear frequently here and are high-yield targets in both Scrabble and Words with Friends. Shared prefixes like AI, AIR, AIL, AIG cluster in this list — useful when you need to open a specific row or column. For quick wins, prioritise aichmophobia (26 pts) — they lead this list on raw tile value. Daily Wordle solvers benefit from lists like this when a letter pattern repeats across puzzles; knowing valid words in advance reduces wasted guesses. Words with Friends shares most of these entries; the average score of 13.5 points reflects standard tile values without board multipliers. With a vowel ratio of 0.47, this list favours vowel-rich racks.

Strategy & study tips
Premium letters drive the top of this list. Prioritise words with Q, X, Z, J, or K when double- and triple-letter squares are open — raw tile value here often exceeds 15 points before multipliers. About 10% of sampled words include a high-value letter (Q, X, Z, J, or K) — useful when planning premium-square plays.
Average Scrabble value here is 13.5 points — use that as a floor for acceptable plays when board space is tight. 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 AICHMOPHOBIA, longest AIGIALOSAURIDAE. Build mnemonics around those two before expanding into the full 351 matches.
