About Word Unscrambler
Free word-game tools, built to be fast, honest, and a little fun.
What this site is
Word Unscrambler is an independent, ad-supported collection of free word-game tools. It unscrambles letters into valid words, solves anagrams, narrows Wordle guesses, finds crossword words by pattern, and runs games like Spelling Bee, Word Ladder, Hangman, and the playful Word Oracle. Everything runs in your browser — no account, no download, no install.
How the tools find words
Each solver compares the letters or pattern you enter against a fixed list of accepted words (a "lexicon" or dictionary) and returns every entry that fits. The unscrambler and anagram solver match by available letters; the crossword helper and Wordle solver match by position and pattern. Because the answers come from a published word list rather than a guess, the results are consistent and check out in real games.
The word lists we use
- NWL (NASPA Word List) — the official word list for Scrabble tournament play in the United States and Canada, maintained by the North American Scrabble Players Association. Choose this for North American play.
- CSW (Collins Scrabble Words) — the word list used for Scrabble play in the United Kingdom and most countries outside North America. Choose this for UK and international play.
- ENABLE (Enhanced North American Benchmark Lexicon) — a large, open, public-domain word list widely used in word games and software. It's the default general-purpose list here.
Different lists accept slightly different words, which is why a play that's legal under CSW may not be legal under NWL. Pick the list that matches the game you're playing.
Are the results valid in Scrabble and Words With Friends?
Yes — choose NWL for North America or CSW for the rest of the world, and every result is a legal play in that dictionary. These tools are study and reference aids; whether to use them during a given game is up to you and the people you play with.
