Our Word Scrambler checks your letters against a dictionary of over 260,000 valid English words — including the two-letter words, Q-without-U words and obscure gems that win word games. Whether you're stuck on a Scrabble rack, solving a Wordle puzzle, tackling a crossword clue, or playing any other word game, our free unscrambler finds every word hidden in your letters — instantly, on any device. Blank tiles? Type ? for wildcards.
Word games reward players who can see patterns in a jumble of letters, but doing that in your head isn't always easy, especially under a timer. Take the rack A, E, L, R, S, T: those six letters alone can form TEARS, ALTER, RATES, SALTER, ARTELS and STALER, among others. Spotting all of them by eye takes practice; our unscrambler does it in a fraction of a second by checking every possible combination against a dictionary of over 260,000 words, then ranks the results by length and Scrabble score so the strongest play is easy to see.
An unscrambler isn't quite the same tool as a pure anagram solver. An anagram solver usually rearranges every letter you give it into one new word; a letter unscrambler searches for every valid word hidden in a set of letters, including shorter words that use only some of them. That's why results are filterable by length, so you can find both the seven-letter bingo that empties your rack and the handy two-letter word that opens up a tight board.
Players use this tool for more than Scrabble. Wordle fans use it to test short five-letter combinations once they've narrowed down which letters are in play. Words With Friends players use it to find higher-scoring tiles for premium squares. Crossword solvers drop in a part-filled answer with wildcards (the ? symbol) standing in for blank squares. And plenty of people use it simply to build vocabulary, since seeing every word hidden in a set of letters is a quick way to learn obscure but valid words like QI, ZA, XI and OXO.
Strategies and quick questions players ask us most
Rearranging your letters into alphabetical order before you start makes repeated letters and common pairs like ST, TH and CH jump out, which is often the fastest way to spot a word by eye.
Most English words need a vowel every two to three letters. If your rack is vowel-heavy, try prefixes like UN- and RE-; if it's vowel-light, check whether Y can act as a vowel, as in GYM or CRY.
For casual games among friends, most players treat a word finder like a dictionary check: fine when you're stuck, but worth trying yourself first. Tournament and competitive play usually bans external tools, so check your game's own rules.
Each result shows its standard Scrabble letter score, so you can weigh a short, high-value word like QUIZ against a longer, lower-value one, which is especially useful when deciding what to play on a premium square.
