Finding the best play
Scores here are the base tile points for each word, before bonus squares. A high-value letter such as Q, Z, X or J on a double- or triple-letter square is often worth more than a longer word, so check the top of the list against the board.
Use the board, not just your rack
Add letters already on the board that you want to build through. Enter your seven tiles plus one or two board letters and the list shows words that use them.
Blanks
Type ? for each blank. Words that need a blank have a dashed border, and their score leaves out the letter the blank stands for, because blanks are worth zero.
