Words from Letters FAQ
What Words Can I Make With These Letters?
That is the, «To be, or not to be,» question of all word games. There are usually many words you can make. Sometimes, there won’t be many at all. Just remember, sometimes it pays to make a word with fewer than the maximum number of points possible because it sets you up better for your next turn.
What Is the Longest English Word?
In the Oxford English Dictionary, the longest word is FLOCCINAUCINIHILIPILIFICATION, which means «the act of deeming or estimating something as worthless. Other dictionaries contain the word PNEUMONOULTRAMICROSCOPICSILICOVOLCANOCONIOSIS, which is coal miners’ «black lung disease.»
If you think that’s bad, German is worse. The longest word in German is DONAUDAMPFSCHIFFFAHRTSELEKTRIZITÄTENHAUPTBETRIEBSWERKBAUUNTERBEAMTENGESELLSCHAFT. FLOCCI…, at 29 letters, and PNEUMONO …, at 45 letters, combined aren’t that long! None of these words will fit on a crossword game board. Scrabble boards are 15 letters across, so the longest word, which also doubles as the word worth the most points, possible is OXYBENPHUTAZONE. It requires eight letters already be placed, none of them on any of the three triples or the double-letter squares, and it scores 1,778 points. No one has ever achieved it.
How Do You Find Words With Letters Missing?
The best way is to use our tool. Of course, you should never use it while playing competitive games because it would count as looking up words in the Official Scrabble Player’s Dictionary prior to playing. But, if you wanted to ask yourself, «Which words from letters in my rack can I make?» during a friendly Words With Friends game, then that would not be bad form. Outside of competition, study as many words as you want using the website. It’s an invaluable training tool!

DISCLAIMER
I don’t take any responsibility for what is done with this wordlist.
I need to configure crunch so that it produces a wordlist with the following set of rules:
- Exactly 10 characters long
- Contains exactly 4 letters, which have to be a-f (all lowercase)
- Contains exactly 6 numbers, which have to be 2-9
- The letters and numbers can be anywhere in the word
I’m guessing maybe regex is involved?

I don’t know if crunch is able to generate that, however it’s pretty easy to generate the word list programmatically. I put such a program (un-optimized) at :
https://gist.github.com/brohee/e0be67593b71d2845b86
The word list ends up humongous, so not hosting it anywhere…
The list going from «aaaa222222» to «aa973ac757» was already 2.6GiB big, so I stopped the experiment.

I tried to generate the wordlist using the following
crunch 10 10 charset abcdef23456789 and then pipeline the result to either egrep or perl one line and write a regex to filter for strings which has 6 numbers with no luck so far but I think this is the way to go. other way is to generate 2 different wordlists and combine them

You can create a password list by using the following command:
crunch min max input-list -t pattern -o output-filename
e.g.
crunch 10 10 abcdef23456789 -o output_file.txt

To use a symbol as a bullet:

Inserting a picture - The image will appear in the Preview section of the Define New Bullet dialog box. Click OK.

The formatted list
Not all pictures work well as bullets. Generally, it’s best to use a simple graphic that has a white (or transparent) background. This ensures the bullet will have a recognizable shape.
Multilevel lists
Multilevel lists allow you to create an outline with multiple levels. Any bulleted or numbered list can be turned into a multilevel list by using the Tab key.
A multilevel list
To create a multilevel list:
- Place the insertion point at the beginning of the line you want to move.
Placing the insertion point - Press the Tab key to increase the indent level of the line. The line will move to the right.
Increasing the indent level
To increase or decrease an indent level:
You can make adjustments to the organization of a multilevel list by increasing or decreasing the indent levels. There are several ways to change the indent level:
- To increase the indent by more than one level, place the insertion point at the beginning of the line and press the Tab key until the desired level is reached.
Increasing the indent level more than once - To decrease the indent level, place the insertion point at the beginning of the line, then hold the Shift key and press the Tab key.
Decreasing the level of a line - You can also increase or decrease the levels of text by placing the insertion point anywhere in the line and then clicking the Increase or Decrease indent commands.
The Increase and Decrease indent commands
When formatting a multilevel list, Word will use the default bullet style. To change the style of a multilevel list, select the list, then click the Multilevel list command on the Home tab.
Formatting a multilevel list
Challenge!
- Open an existing Word 2013 document. If you want, you can use our practice document.
- Insert a new bulleted list into the document. If you’re using the example, add Fundraising, Chair’s Report, and Other business to the bottom of the list.
- Create a new numbered list.
- Restart the numbering of the list so it begins with a number of your choice.
- Use a symbol as a bullet. If you’re using the example, change the open circles into a different symbol.
- Modify the color of a bullet. If you’re using the example, change the color of the green diamond bullets.
- Change the style of the list. If you’re using the example, change the bulleted list into a numbered list.
- Use the Tab key to change the levels of some of the lines. If you’re using the example, increase the level of the two bullets under the list item International Arborists Association.
