How the word unscrambler works
A word unscrambler rearranges a jumble of letters into every valid word you can spell with them. Type up to 16 letters in the box above — add ? or * for blank tiles — and the unscrambler checks them against your chosen dictionary, then lists every match from longest to shortest.
Open Fine-tune options to pick a dictionary (NWL for US/Canada, CSW for the UK and international play, or the open ENABLE list) and to filter results by letters they must include, start with, or end with.
Frequently asked questions
What is a word unscrambler?
A word unscrambler is a tool that takes scrambled or jumbled letters and finds every real word those letters can spell. People use it for word games like Scrabble and Words With Friends, for solving anagrams, and for getting unstuck on word puzzles.
How many letters can I unscramble at once?
Up to 16 letters. You can also include one or more blanks using ? or * for unknown tiles.
Which dictionary should I use?
Choose NWL if you play in North America, CSW for the UK and international play, or ENABLE for a large open word list. Every result is valid in the dictionary you pick.
Can I unscramble letters with a blank or wildcard?
Yes. Use ? or * to represent a blank tile, and the unscrambler will substitute any letter in that position.
What is the difference between an unscrambler and an anagram solver?
An unscrambler returns every word you can make using some or all of your letters, including shorter words. An anagram solver returns only words that use all of your letters exactly once. Use the Anagram Solver for exact-letter answers.
