About this word list
With only 6 matches in our dictionary, every word here is worth memorising — there are no filler entries. Suffix patterns such as -CA, -CD, -CM, -BOL appear frequently here and are high-yield targets in both Scrabble and Words with Friends. Notice how many words begin with LC, LCA, LCD, LCM — memorising these clusters speeds up in-game word retrieval. For quick wins, prioritise lcsymbol (17 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 8.7 points reflects standard tile values without board multipliers. The average vowel-to-consonant ratio here is 0.15, which affects how easily you can form these words from a random seven-tile rack.
