About this word list
With 47 valid entries, this is one of the larger curated lists on unscrambletools.com, sorted by length and Scrabble score for quick scanning. Scrabble players will notice 5 words carrying Q, X, Z, J, or K — letters that separate casual players from competitive ones. Common endings in this list include -AM, -AO, -AR, -IAM — patterns that let you extend words already on the board. For quick wins, prioritise tiza (13 pts) — they lead this list on raw tile value. While Wordle uses a smaller answer list, studying broader dictionary patterns here helps you eliminate impossible guesses faster. In tournament Scrabble, knowing word counts and score distributions for common patterns saves seconds per turn — seconds that add up over 30+ games. The average vowel-to-consonant ratio here is 0.4, which affects how easily you can form these words from a random seven-tile rack.

Strategy & study tips
High-score density makes this page ideal for tournament warm-ups: scan the stats block, then quiz yourself on the five highest entries without looking at the list. About 11% of sampled words include a high-value letter (Q, X, Z, J, or K) — useful when planning premium-square plays.
When the board already shows the first letters, this page validates every 4-letter continuation before you spend a turn. Internal links point to Pattern Finder, Crossword Solver, Anagram Solver, and Wordle Solver — each tool adds interactivity this static list intentionally omits. Anchor words: highest scorer TIZA, longest TIZA. Build mnemonics around those two before expanding into the full 47 matches.

Frequently asked questions

- Our dictionary contains 47 words matching this pattern. The average length is 4 letters and the average Scrabble score is 5.6 points. The highest-scoring entry shown is tiza (13 pts).

- 5 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?
