Scrabble Word Finder

You can use wildcards(?) for missing letters and they appear in red.

Scrabble® Word Finder is a simple tool to help you find words from unscrambled letters in your word game. We recently redesigned our word finder to make it even simpler and easier to use. Just type your letters into the search box—that’s it!

If you have other letter possibilities beyond what's in your hand, you can use a question mark (?) as a wildcard to find even more words that might help you secure a victory.

Need more words?

If you really want to step up your game, the best thing you can do is try to memorize as many words as possible. We have a ton of word lists with words that start with, end with, or contain any letter. The most important words to memorize—since they tend to be the highest-scoring—are Z words, J words, X words, and Q words.

Simple ways to use our tool

If our Scrabble word finder is leaving you scratching your head, the simplest way to use it is to enter your letters and hit "Find Word." This option will return all available words that can be made with the letters you entered. It’s the best and quickest way to get results when you're in a hurry and don't want to spend time figuring it out.

Another great way to use our Scrabble word finder is to look at your current board and see what other letters you can build off of. You can enter those letters as prefixes and suffixes. By doing this, you open up more possibilities in your game and rack up serious points. You can also use letters in the middle of your word to take advantage of their position—maybe even plan ahead to build something bigger later. Thinking ahead and staying one step ahead of your opponent is what will separate you from the average player and turn you into a pro.

Strategy

From time to time, we get questions from users asking what we think is the best strategy when using our tools. The main thing we’ve found is that when trying to find a word, you should not only focus on your letters but also look at what’s available on your board. By doing so, you open up many more possibilities. Don’t just get stuck on your letters—expand your thinking in different ways.

For instance:

  • Using letters in the middle of a word can reveal more options. Most people only look at the end letters and miss out on other ways to place their tiles.
  • Take your time – Don’t let the other player rush you. Basic rules allow you to think through your moves.
