Word list

Game list: a compact public-domain word list commonly used for casual Scrabble and Words With Friends play. Full list: a broader English dictionary including archaic, technical, and proper-noun words.

Search by

Letters mode: find every word you can spell from the letters you have. Use ? as a blank tile.

Type some letters to see words you can make.

How to use

  1. Type a pattern — known letters plus ? for any unknown position.
  2. Pattern length equals the word length; no length selector needed.
  3. Switch to Letters mode for letter-set anagram search instead.

Examples

Pattern: c?t
CAT, COT, CUT.

Before you use the result

Word tools can narrow options, clean text, or show patterns, but they do not know the rules of every puzzle, class assignment, publication style, or house dictionary. Check the result against the context where you plan to use it.

For learning, review why a result matched instead of copying the first answer. That keeps the tool useful as practice, not only lookup.
