CROW

CROW 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 CROW a Scrabble word?" with data — not guesswork — before you play a tile or fill a crossword slot.

CROW (noun): black birds having a raucous call. Additional senses: a Siouan language spoken by the Crow; an instance of boastful talk; "his brag is worse than his fight"; "whenever he won we were exposed to his gasconade"; the cry of a cock (or an imitation of it).

In standard Scrabble scoring, CROW totals 9 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. CROW 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.

CROW is 4 letters long, begins with C, ends with W, and sorts to the alphagram CORW. No other entry in this dictionary rearranges into the same letter set, so CROW is unique within its alphagram family. Letter makeup: 1 vowel, 3 consonants.
