About this word list
Our dictionary returns 239 matches — a deep pool for anagram practice, crossword solving, and vocabulary building. Scrabble players will notice 40 words carrying Q, X, Z, J, or K — letters that separate casual players from competitive ones. Suffix patterns such as -AN, -ED, -NG, -ING appear frequently here and are high-yield targets in both Scrabble and Words with Friends. Top scorer: ticktack (20 pts). Average Scrabble value across the list is 12.1 points per word. Daily Wordle solvers benefit from lists like this when a letter pattern repeats across puzzles; knowing valid words in advance reduces wasted guesses. Competitive Scrabble strategy relies on pattern recognition. Lists like this train your brain to spot playable words under time pressure. The average vowel-to-consonant ratio here is 0.38, 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 20% 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 8-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 TICKTACK, longest TICKTACK. Build mnemonics around those two before expanding into the full 239 matches.

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 239 words matching this pattern. The average length is 8 letters and the average Scrabble score is 12.1 points. The highest-scoring entry shown is ticktack (20 pts).
- Are there high-scoring words in this list?
- 40 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?
