At 2,821 words, this list covers common playable words alongside lesser-known entries accepted in competitive Scrabble. High-value letter density matters: roughly 172 results here include at least one premium tile worth 8–10 points on its own. Suffix patterns such as -ED, -LY, -LE, -ZED appear frequently here and are high-yield targets in both Scrabble and Words with Friends. Top scorer: unoxygenized (33 pts). Average Scrabble value across the list is 25.7 points per word.
