CLEAR

CLEAR is listed in the UnscrambleTools word-game dictionary used across our unscrambler, anagram, pattern, and scoring tools. Pages like this one exist so you can answer "Is CLEAR a Scrabble word?" with data — not guesswork — before you play a tile or fill a crossword slot.

CLEAR (noun): a clear or unobstructed space or expanse of land or water; "finally broke out of the forest into the open". Additional senses: the state of being free of suspicion; "investigation showed that he was in the clear"; free (the throat) by making a rasping sound; "Clear the throat"; rid of obstructions; "Clear your desk".

In standard Scrabble scoring, CLEAR totals 7 points before multipliers. That sum uses official letter values: common tiles (A, E, I, O, U, L, N, S, T, R) are worth 1, while D and G are 2, B, C, M, P are 3, F, H, V, W, Y are 4, K is 5, J and X are 8, and Q and Z are 10. CLEAR relies mostly on common tiles, which often makes it easier to play from a mixed rack but caps the raw ceiling compared with high-premium words.

CLEAR is 5 letters long, begins with C, ends with R, and sorts to the alphagram ACELR. There are 4 anagrams in this dictionary sharing that exact letter bag. Letter makeup: 2 vowels, 3 consonants.

Among 21 tracked 5-letter entries, CLEAR ranks by raw score (7 points). Anagram alternatives include CARLE, CERAL, CLARE, LACER — useful when you need the same tiles with a different hook letter. Similar-length words in the same dictionary include JAZZY, FEZZY, FIZZY, FUZZY; open their word pages to compare endings, vowel weight, and crossover potential.

Strategically, CLEAR carries 2 vowels and 3 consonants. Its consonant-heavy shape pairs well with open vowel dumps on the board. Hooks on C or R are common study angles; browse words starting with C and words ending with R to rehearse parallel sets.

CLEAR is a 5-letter answer slot candidate. Filter by length 5, starts with C, ends with R, or contains letters from your crossing entries in the Crossword Solver and Pattern Finder. For American-style grids, 5-letter entries like CLEAR frequently cross shorter words; knowing that CLEAR contains A, C, E, L, R helps you test crossing letters quickly. When you only know a few cells, open the Crossword Solver with a pattern such as c???r to narrow candidates before checking definitions.
