Referring to the word lists highlighted above are a great way to find words containing the letters you want to use. We’ve organized these lists for your convenience, grouping together words of the same length.

When you have a more specific query and you want to find words containing the letters in your game, then our handy word finder search tool is a powerful option. Just type in your letters (up to 20 of them!) and let the tool work its magic. You’ll have words containing the letters you need in a jiffy.
Game Dictionary
Now that you’re looking at your custom word list with the specific letters you entered, you may be wondering if you can do more. If you’re playing a word game, then it is important that you select the correct game dictionary too!
Pick the Words With Friends® dictionary if you’re playing that game, but choose the Scrabble dictionary if you’re playing that game. Both the scoring system and the list of valid words are different between the two titles. We also support Wordscapes® and Word Chums®. If in doubt, pick Scrabble® Dictionaries to be on the safe side.
Find Words With Missing Letters
Maybe you want to look for words with the letters ABDOR. Some options here include board, broad and dobra. But, what if you’re playing a crossword puzzle or some other word game where you don’t know all your letters? What about when you’ve got blank tiles in Scrabble®? You can do that with our word finder too.
Simply enter a question mark (?) or a space to indicate a wildcard. You can include up to three of these in a word search. So, if you enter ADI?Y into the search bar, you’ll find words like daily, diary, and diyas.
RETAINS: Winning 7-Letter Words
The biggest reason why you want to master as many 7-letter words as you can is because you earn a huge bonus when you use all 7 letter tiles in Scrabble® or Words With Friends®. With Words With Friends®, you get 35 bonus points when you use all 7 of your letter tiles. In the case of Scrabble® and Scrabble® GO, the bingo bonus scores you a whopping 50 extra points.
