Data at a glance — 331 matches, 7.1 avg pts, 4 avg letters.
Our dictionary returns 331 matches — a deep pool for anagram practice, crossword solving, and vocabulary building. Among these entries, 38 contain rare tiles that can dramatically boost your score when played on double- or triple-letter squares. Suffix patterns such as -CK, -CH, -DE, -ABS appear frequently here and are high-yield targets in both Scrabble and Words with Friends. For quick wins, prioritise lazy (16 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 7.1 points reflects standard tile values without board multipliers. The average vowel-to-consonant ratio here is 0.35, which affects how easily you can form these words from a random seven-tile rack.
