EVE (noun): (Old Testament) Adam's wife in Judeo-Christian mythology: the first woman and mother of the human race; God created Eve from Adam's rib and placed Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Additional senses: the day before; "he always arrives on the eve of her departure"; the latter part of the day (the period of decreasing daylight from late afternoon until nightfall); "he enjoyed the evening light across the lake"; the period immediately before something; "on the eve of the French Revolution".

In standard Scrabble scoring, EVE totals 6 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. EVE 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.

EVE is 3 letters long, begins with E, ends with E, and sorts to the alphagram EEV. There is 1 anagram in this dictionary sharing that exact letter bag. Letter makeup: 2 vowels, 1 consonant.

Among 18 tracked 3-letter entries, EVE ranks by raw score (6 points). Anagram alternatives include VEE — useful when you need the same tiles with a different hook letter.

Strategically, EVE carries 2 vowels and 1 consonant. Its vowel-heavy shape often plays cleanly from racks with excess vowels. Hooks on E or E are common study angles; browse words starting with E and words ending with E to rehearse parallel sets.
