How do I unscramble letters into words?
Type your letters in the box. The list shows every English word they make as you type, longest first, from a list of about 170,000 words. Type ? for a blank tile, and use the filters for a start, an end, letters inside, or a length. Each word shows its points in the classic crossword board game.
How the word unscrambler works
Type your letters. The list shows every word they make, longest first, as you type: each letter once, and a ? for a blank tile. Common words come first in each group; rare words, which word games often allow, come after them in grey.
Filters keep the words that start with letters, end with them, or contain them, and words of one length. The letters of a filter must be in your letters too. The small number by each word is its points in the classic crossword board game, without bonus squares. A blank scores 0.
Where the words come from
The list is ENABLE, a word list for word games that its authors released into the public domain, with the common words of 12dicts, a public-domain list from six learner's dictionaries: about 170,000 words of 2 to 15 letters. We left out slurs, swear words and sexual words, because teachers use this page in class.
Want a game instead? Word scramble gives you mixed letters to solve against the clock, and the anagram solver finds the words and phrases that use every letter of a word or a name.
Questions
Which word list does the word unscrambler use?
ENABLE, a word list for word games that its authors released into the public domain, with the common words of 12dicts, another public-domain list. Together they hold about 170,000 words of 2 to 15 letters. We left out slurs, swear words and sexual words.
Does it work for Scrabble and Words With Friends?
Mostly. Scrabble tournaments use their own word lists, the NASPA Word List in North America and Collins Scrabble Words in most other countries, which are not free to copy, and Words With Friends has its own list. Most words are the same, but check a rare word in your game's list before you play it.
How do I use a blank tile?
Type a ? for each blank, or press Add a blank, up to 3. A blank can be any letter: the word shows that letter marked, and it scores 0 points.
What do the points mean?
The points of the letters in the classic crossword board game: 1 for common letters like E and S, up to 10 for Q and Z. Bonus squares don't count, and a blank scores 0.
Why are some words grey?
They are rare words. Word games often allow them, but most people don't know them. Common words come first in each group of the same length.
Does the word unscrambler work on a school Chromebook?
It is a normal web page on lifesim.com with nothing to download, so it runs in Chrome on a Chromebook. Some school filters block game sites, so we can't promise that yours allows it. The word list loads with the page; after that, a search needs no network.
