Free online word finder
Find valid English words, anagrams, and shorter combinations from the letters you enter. The search runs in your browser using the site’s built-in dictionary.
All matching words
Searches run directly in your browser using the site’s built-in dictionary.
Results are grouped by word length and limited to words that can be built from the exact quantity of each letter entered.
Your letter searches stay in the browser. Only a word you deliberately click for a definition is sent to an online definition service.
Learn and practice
A repeatable method for finding prefixes, suffixes, stems, and anagrams.
Choose opening guesses that reveal high-value vowels and consonants.
Use premium letters, hooks, and board placement more effectively.
Combine clue type, answer length, crossings, and common patterns.
Recognize productive beginnings such as re-, un-, pre-, and trans-.
Spot endings such as -ing, -ed, -tion, -ness, and -able.
Understand why some letters are more useful in word games and puzzles.
Turn play into deliberate vocabulary practice and long-term recall.
Study complete and partial anagrams, then practice with sample letter sets.
The tool downloads the site’s local dictionary once, inside a dedicated browser worker. When you submit letters, it counts how many times each letter appears and returns only dictionary entries that can be constructed without using any letter more often than you supplied it.
For example, LISTEN can produce listen, silent, enlist, inlets, and tinsel. It cannot produce a word requiring two of the same letter unless the original rack also contains two copies.
The dictionary is broad and may contain uncommon, historical, regional, or technical terms. Official word games maintain their own approved dictionaries, so confirm a disputed word using the rule set for the game you are playing.
For learning, the best results are often familiar words you can define and use—not simply the longest entry returned.
Worked example
LISTEN contains six different letters. A result can use any subset of those letters, but it cannot introduce a new letter or use one of them twice.
Full-length anagrams such as silent, enlist, inlets, and tinsel appear with shorter words below. Click a result when you want to check its definition.
The same process works with repeated letters too: if your rack contains two E's, words may use two E's; if it contains only one, they cannot. Read how the search works or learn a manual unscrambling method.
