One word uses every one of your 6 tiles — the complete rearrangement most puzzles are asking for.

Longest first, alphabetical within each length. The small number is the word's tile score. Tap any word to unscramble it in turn.

Unlike the list above, these depend on the order you typed: each one is sitting in the spelling already, left to right, with nothing rearranged.

Add a single blank and the same rack reaches 186 more words, up to 7 letters. Here are the longest of them.

3 vowels and 3 consonants — a balanced rack, which is where the longest words usually come from.

Face value of the full rack: 16 points.

The Q: Almost always needs a U behind it. If there is no U in your tiles, the only common escapes are QI and QAT.

Drop a tile and solve the rest. Each link runs the same search on the remaining letters.
