How to find the best Scrabble word
- Type the seven tiles on your rack, plus any letter on the board you plan to build on. Use ? for a blank tile.
- Switch the grouping to Points to see the highest-scoring words first.
- Use Starts with, Ends with or Contains to fit a word onto a particular spot on the board.

Words are scored by adding the tile values. Blank tiles are worth 0 points, and the letter a blank stands in for is underlined in the results. Bonus squares aren't included, because they depend on where you place the word.
