Using Our Word Scramble Solver

Works for Word Puzzles, Scrabble, Words With Friends, and Other Scrambled Word Games!

Did you come to this website (a word game solver) trying to make sense of a bunch of scrambled letters on your tile rack?
Or perhaps you’re wondering how your best friend (the mild mannered accountant) is suddenly an expert on Middle English literature,
Paleontology, and advanced political science — based on the odd set of words they just played in scrabble? Or maybe you just need
some help solving the daily word scramble puzzle…. Either way, we’re happy to have you!

This word solver is designed to answer one question: What words can be made with these letters? What do these letters spell?
(ok, fine, that was two questions… but you get the point. Give us scrambled letters, we will give you a word list of words
you can make with those letters. Subject to any other limits you know about the word scramble answers.)

Simply enter your letter(s) in the box (see above) and hit the big friendly green button! That will send our fast word unscrambler into action, unscrambling letters to generate a word list that you can use to solve the word puzzle game. Got blank tiles on your scrabble rack? Not a problem, our scrambled letters word finder is designed to accept wildcard characters (that can be any letter) and use them to generate scrambled word ideas.

How Does the Word Scramble Solver Work?

Behind the scenes, we’ve got a very fast anagram solver powered by an open source word dictionary, the same one which is used by most of the major
cell phone word games. By default, we sort the word list by word length (7 letter word ideas, 6 letter word ideas…), start at the top of the scrambled word list and see which one fits the word scramble game board best. This helps you figure out how to fit a word onto a scrabble board or get
the right word placement on a word puzzle grid.

We’ve updated our scrambled word list over time, to filter out bad words and make sure our word scramble ideas are up to date. The anagram solver is
smart enough to use blank tiles (if you have wildcard characters) to plug any missing letters. By default, our scrabble word list matches the same
basic rules for valid words in scrabble: not a proper noun, any common very is allowed. We have a few nouns which straddle the line (where the name
of a specific place or thing has become generic) — in those cases, we assume the broader use and include the word.

But wait! That’s not all we have to offer (beyond word scramble words). Need to make your own word scramble (A word scramble printable)? We’ve got you covered,
with our word scramble worksheet maker
Need a make a word? Try our word scrambler (free)
to scramble letters into new words? We’ve got that as well. We even have a mobile phone
Game where you make words from letters.
We’re the ultimate word scramble cheat sheet.

Playing Scrabble or Words with Friends? We’ve got versions for you as well. This word scramble solver sorts words by word length. Those
scrabble word maker versions will calculate the number of scrabble points or words with friends points and rank words by point value. You
can use the advanced options in the solver to build off of words which are already on the board.

What words can i make with these letters?

That’s the fun part. Enter your letters into the word scramble solver and see what it gives you.
(The word list was edited to remove bad words, but most of the rest of the dictionary is available)

Frequently Asked Questions

Does The Solver Allow Wildcard Characters?

Yes! The wordsolver supports blank tiles (Scrabble) or wildcard characters. These tiles will be
checked against all of the possible letters, vastly increasing the number of unscrambled words.
Enter the wildcard character as a * or ? in the word solver letter box.

What is Word Scramble Game? What is jumble word?

Word scramble games are like football or soccer for the human mind: a big mess of letters pushing, shoving, and shouting to be
sorted into the correct order. You probably know them as Scrabble, Words With Friends, Word Cookies, WordFeud, or any of the
many other cell phone games people play. Word scramble puzzles can also be found in the Sunday paper, relying on
the solver’s ability to recognize and transpose letters appropriately to solve the puzzles.

What About Scrabble or Words With Friends?

This unscramble words finder can be used to find words in your letters for Scrabble or Words With Friends. We also
have a Scrabble Helper and
Words With Friends helper that
will give you scrabble points and words with friends points. These also support wild card characters.

We think it is more fun to use simple tools (like a decoder) as a scrabble word finder or scrabble cheat. Our tools can give you some scrabble word ideas (including using blank tiles) and let you find the highest scoring word from there. Our advanced options give you a way to filter by first letter within the valid words you can play. The same approach also works for

text twist.

How To Play Word Scramble Games — Scrabble vs. Boggle

From the perspective of a scramble solver, Scrabble and boggle are far more similar that you would imagine. Both are basically
just differently structured paths through the same basic dictionary search. In the case of Scrabble, we have a set of possible letters
from your Scrabble Rack — plus at least one letter from the board — and are looking for combinations of these letters that are in the
Scrabble dictionary. That’s what our word scramble finder is for.

For Boggle, we’re doing a two dimensional search of adjacent letters (all the possible paths) and checking to see
if any of the words are contained in the dictionary. Remember the potential hit-rate for any specific permutation is low: Judging from
what we saw above, the odds of a random letter pattern being a word in the dictionary are less than one percent.

The math is complicated but you can even calculate the odds of getting another piece. Our decoder doesn’t address this
but we’ve done a few drawings of a word scramble solver tool with an odds table built it. We have something like this already for hangman
(calculates odds of a given letter being present in the word). The word scramble solver version is a puzzle solver and word unscrambler tool.

How Do You Solve Word Scramble Puzzles? (Game Designer Perspective)

Speaking as someone who teaches game design, there are three basic ways to construct a puzzle where the solver has to guess a word.

• Provide all the letters but transpose them: (Word Scramble Puzzles)
• Provide some letters and ask the solver to guess the missing letters (Hangman Puzzles)
• Challenge players to use other knowledge to identify relevant words (Synonyms, Antonyms, and Decoding Clues)

The first of these puzzles is basically a combinatoric attack on the human mind, seeking to overload the solver with possible
ways to unscramble letters to make words. If we’re talking about a group of 7 letters (not all of which need to be used), it
turns out there are many possible arrangements. There are 7 factorial (7!) ways to arrange a set of unique letters — this works
out to 7! = 5040 ways to place them in order. When you consider that we don’t need to play every letter, this opens up even
more potential ways to put the letters in order: 7! + 6! + 5! + 4! + 3! + 2! + 1! = 5912 possible arrangements to scramble word.

The good news is not every possible word scramble solutions to unscramble letter ideas are actual English words. When you match these jumbled word answers up against
an actual unscramble dictionary (as we do in our word scramble solver), only a handful actually match dictionary words. Judging from some
experimentation with the unscramble words solver, most seven letter combinations map to between 15 and 50 possible English words.
So to solve a word scramble puzzle, you need to be able to unscramble words quickly see fragments of words and creatively narrow them down to the
most useful potential solutions. Our word scramble solver does this: it looks through a dictionary to unscramble letters to make words from your letters. Check out our boggle solver (a twist on wordscramble).

As we mentioned above, we have some advanced options to help you make even more words from your letters. First, the solver supports
using wildcard characters. Each of these can represent any of the 26 possible letters. Be careful, however. Including a wildcard will
effectively increase your number of potential arrangements by 26 — so those 5040 potential arrangements just became about 145,000 (we
can’t just multiply by 26 since there are some permutations of the letters which would exclude the wild card character). To include a
wildcard character in your answer, simple enter a * or ? for the letter. It will show the wildcard letter as highlighted
piece of text in the list of possible solutions.

The word scramble solver can also help with unscrambling fragments of an existing word.
You can identify scrambled letters that must be at the beginning or end of a word. You can even provide a list of letters where you want to
build off of only one letter (for a scramble game like Scrabble). Take look at our advanced options.
The good news? Adding clues like this actually makes it easier to find words to play, since it reduces the number of possible words (for what is the word games or a scramble word search puzzle).

Word Search Solver — Advanced Strategies

A higher level word search puzzle often needs to be broken into parts. You’re looking at multiple paths through a web of letters,
potentially constrained by limitations on the shape and length of a path. A wordsearch puzzle can be fed into one of our boggle solver tools. We have up to a 6 x 6 matrix and it accepts the letters as a string for easy setup. Other formats can be
easily fed into the word unscrambler and the word list consolidated. This is good when you are trying to solve for a single area.
Puzzle cracking tends to accelerate once you unscramble word options. Once you found word ideas, the wordsearch will fall quickly as the potential solution space narrows. (try our word unscrambler for a scramble words list)

How Do You Solve Other Word Puzzles?

Did you think we would just leave you hanging? (Trick question, we are the Hanging Hyena…). Here’s how to solve the other two types
of word puzzle problems. Here’s a different view of what you need for a word scramble cheat.

Hangman is basically just pattern matching. We do this with our hangman solver. If you know something
about computer programming, you should be able to write a script to do this using a pattern matching technique like regular expressions.

The same basic approach works for crossword puzzles. The typical crossword solver look at the letter pattern using known puzzle letter solutions and word length. A solved column can also be used to force solutions to the rows that cross it. The clue can narrow your options down to the correct answer. This is enough to crack a crossword game. Many hidden words puzzles work under similar principles, forcing you to solve the target word via patterns and clues.

Meaning based puzzles are significantly harder — because the matching process can get very fuzzy (since people often refer to things
multiple ways) and there are very few good databases for searching context. Most problem solving approaches need to address those
two needs, at least narrowly (for the specific domain of the puzzles). This is why context based questions («what is your first pet»)
are often used as security questions for sensitive information — they can be almost impossible to guess without some shared context. Harder than a word unscramble game which can be cracked in a dictionary attack.

How Do Good Human Solvers Unscramble Words Faster?

A good human word solver will break their rack into parts and unscramble these letters quickly. They aren’t just grabbing random letters, most use standard methods to crack a jumble word.

• First, look for prefixes and suffixes.
• Next, look for letters that are commonly paired together. Letter pairs such as «TH» or «CH».
• Separate vowels and consonants. Most words alternate the two. Start recombining them.
• Look for English Root Words and common loan words from other languages.

How Do you Solve: What words do these letters make?

Wondering What words can you make with these letters?
Easy. Simply enter your letters into the word solver and hit the big green button. The word scramble solver will show all scrambled words which those letters can make. By the way, this is the same answer as What can I spell with these letters?

What is word scramble game?

Any word game where you need to words from scrambled letters. This includes Scrabble, Words With Friends, etc. Basically anything where you rearrange letters to make a word out of scrambled letters.

How can I make a lot of words?

One really good way to find lots of words in a game is to find your «base word»: usually either
a root word or popular noun / verb and start tossing prefixes and suffixes on the ends. Keep swapping
them around until you crank out a ton of words. This works great for increasing your Boggle score
by showing you what words can you make with the letters?

How can I do better at Scrabble? How to make scrabble words?

Well, one option is our Scrabble Helper. But
if you’re going for more «long term» improvement, you want to build your vocabulary and puzzle skills.
Don’t spend time memorizing the dictionary,
however — you’ll get more mileage from memorizing lists of short words (such as
two letter words and
three letter words).
Skimming common root words is also good.

English does have quirks. There are a handful of words which break the rules. These were often also
borrowed from another language. Somewhere along the line, people started abusing them.
These evade most of the tricks for making words from your letters.
The only trick for these words is to learn them.
Word games are a good way to do this. The more you play word games
and puzzles,the better you will know English. Using scratch paper can help if you’re a visual person.

What is an Anagram?

Anagrams are words, phrases, or sentences made by rearranging the letters of another sentence, word or phrase. A good example is ‘Bad Credit,’ if you rearrange these letters, you get ‘Debit Card.’ Another excellent example is ‘Nag A Ram’, which is an anagram of ‘Anagram.’
