About this word list
Our dictionary returns 296 matches — a deep pool for anagram practice, crossword solving, and vocabulary building. High-value letter density matters: roughly 44 results here include at least one premium tile worth 8–10 points on its own. Suffix patterns such as -GS, -ND, -DS, -ABA appear frequently here and are high-yield targets in both Scrabble and Words with Friends. For quick wins, prioritise fizz (25 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 10 points reflects standard tile values without board multipliers. The average vowel-to-consonant ratio here is 0.33, which affects how easily you can form these words from a random seven-tile rack.

Frequently asked questions
- How is this different from “words starting with”?
- The general starting-with hub includes every length. This page locks word size (e.g. only 5-letter words starting with S), which matches Wordle and crossword slots more closely.
- How many words match this pattern?
- Our dictionary contains 296 words matching this pattern. The average length is 4 letters and the average Scrabble score is 10 points. The highest-scoring entry shown is fizz (25 pts).
- Are there high-scoring words in this list?
- 44 words in this sample include premium letters (Q, X, Z, J, or K). These are strong candidates for double- and triple-letter square plays in Scrabble.
- Is this page useful for Wordle?
- Yes. Wordle uses 5-letter words, so length-filtered lists and pattern pages help you validate guesses and build a mental dictionary of allowed combinations before you play.
- Are these valid Scrabble words?
- Yes. Results are drawn from a standard English word list that aligns closely with the official Scrabble dictionary. All displayed words are accepted in competitive Scrabble play.
- Can I use these words in Words with Friends?
- Most Scrabble-valid words are also legal in Words with Friends. The two games use slightly different word lists, but the overlap is large. Use this list as a solid starting point for either game.
- How are the point scores calculated?
- Scores are the raw sum of standard Scrabble letter values (A=1, B=3, C=3, D=2 … Z=10) without board multipliers. Higher-scoring words contain rarer letters like Q, X, or Z.
- Can I combine multiple pattern filters?
- Yes. Use the Pattern Finder to combine starts-with, ends-with, contains, exact length, include letters, and exclude letters in a single search — the same engine that powers these curated lists.
- How many words are in the dictionary?
- The dictionary contains over 350 000 English words, covering everything from common 2-letter words to rare 15-letter entries, with proper nouns and abbreviations excluded.
- Is this tool free to use?
- Yes. All word lists and search tools on unscrambletools.com are completely free with no registration required.
