Check a word and its meaning
Look up one word in our English spelling lists. Official game dictionaries may differ.
What does a match mean?
“Found in our word list” means the entry appears in your selected spelling resource. This is not an official game validity check. We retain useful inflections and spelling variants. Extended English also contains names and uncommon entries.
Definitions and forms
Open a word to view available meanings, part of speech, forms and usage examples. Definitions come from a complete Kaikki English import. Some spelling-list entries may not have a usable definition in the source. If a meaning is missing, a link to Wiktionary lets you look it up at the source.
How letter points work
Points are the sum of these letter values. They describe the spelled word, not a move on a game board. There are no word multipliers, letter bonuses or game-dictionary checks. If you use a blank tile, subtract that letter’s value because the blank is worth zero.
| Letters | Points each |
|---|---|
| A E I L N O R S T U | 1 |
| D G | 2 |
| B C M P | 3 |
| F H V W Y | 4 |
| K | 5 |
| J X | 8 |
| Q Z | 10 |
Example: QUIZ scores 10 + 1 + 1 + 10 = 22 letter points.
