This list skews vowel-heavy, which helps when your rack is consonant-clogged — parallel plays and two-letter hooks become easier because many entries already carry A, E, I, O, or U. About 8% 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 6-letter continuation before you spend a turn. Average Scrabble value here is 8.6 points — use that as a floor for acceptable plays when board space is tight.
