Anagram Solver
Enter English letters to find single-word anagrams and shorter words in the verified 172,823-word ENABLE dictionary. Exact anagrams appear first, followed by shorter matches; repeated letters, up to two blanks and required letters narrow the search. Longer racks are accepted, with dictionary entries up to 28 letters. The first 500 matches are listed in your chosen order. After one same-site dictionary download, your letters stay in your browser.

Longest words first, grouped by how many letters they use. Words come from the ENABLE list, downloaded once on your first search and then searched entirely in this browser. Minimum length trims shorter words only; exact anagrams retain priority under the 500-result cap.
Standard English tile values
The scores above use these, the letter values printed on an English Scrabble set. They count the letters only: board premiums, the seven-tile bonus and any house rules are yours to add.

Common questions
- Which dictionary does this anagram solver use?
- ENABLE, the Enhanced North American Benchmark Lexicon: the pinned public-domain file holds 172,823 English words, including inflected and uncommon forms. The tool verifies its byte size, SHA-256 digest, word count and alphabetical entries before searching. It is not an official Scrabble, Words With Friends or Wordle list; check the dictionary for the game you play.
- How do blank tiles and wildcards work?
- Two ways, and they add up to the same thing. Type a question mark among your letters, or use the Blanks control in the readout. Up to two blanks are allowed, and each one stands in for any letter of the alphabet. A blank scores nothing, exactly as on a board, so the score shown has the value of the letter it covered taken off and gets a dotted underline to show it happened.
- Does it find shorter words, not just full anagrams?
- Exact single-word anagrams use all supplied letters and blanks and appear first, followed by shorter words grouped by length. The minimum length only filters shorter words. Sorting by score or A to Z replaces the shorter length groups with one ranked list; exact anagrams keep their first row. The overall 500-result cap applies in every sort, so exact matches retain priority rather than being exempt from the cap.
- Why does the first search download a file, and how big is it?
- The ENABLE file is 1.7 MB of plain text, fetched from this site when you first type a search, choose the example or press Search these letters. Restoring a saved rack does not fetch it. Once downloaded and verified, it stays in this page’s memory and searches work offline. If loading fails or times out, use Try again; Cancel download stops the pending request.
- How is the Scrabble score worked out?
- By adding up the standard English tile values, which are listed in full under the results: one point for A, E, I, O, U, L, N, S, T and R, up to ten for Q and Z. It scores the letters and nothing else. Double and triple squares, the fifty-point bonus for using all seven tiles, and any house rules are yours to add, because they depend on where the word lands rather than on the word.
- What does the must-contain box do?
- It keeps only the words that include those letters, in any order and anywhere in the word. Typing ing finds string and lining, not just words ending in ing. Repeats count, so entering ss asks for two of them. If the letters you require cannot come out of your rack even with a blank, the tool says so rather than showing an empty list.
- Is there a limit on how many words it shows?
- It lists the first 500 matches and counts the remainder. Exact anagrams have priority, then shorter matches follow the chosen length, score or alphabetical order. The limit applies to all listed words, including exact anagrams. Best score refers to the listed set. Copy listed includes every listed row, even rows hidden behind Show more; it excludes the remaining matches. Raise the minimum length or require letters to narrow a capped result.
- Are the words I search sent anywhere?
- Your letters are matched against the verified list in your browser. This tool’s only data request fetches the fixed word list from this site, without your letters in its URL or body. Once loaded, searches work offline. The last rack you deliberately edit is saved locally when browser storage permits; save failures are visible and Forget saved rack removes it.
- Does it solve phrases, names or non-English anagrams?
- It returns individual English ENABLE words. Spaces between input letters are ignored, so entering several words supplies one combined rack and does not request a multiword answer. It does not have proper-name, celebrity, place-name, French, Spanish or German dictionaries, phrase search, crossword clues or board placements.
- Do repeat letters mean tiles can be reused?
- Each occurrence in your rack can be used once per result word. Two supplied S tiles can make a word needing two S letters; one S tile cannot be reused. Up to two question marks, asterisks or underscores, plus the Blanks control, may supply missing letters. Letter reuse without a tile limit, as in Spelling Bee, is a different rule.
- Can I search a long rack or use this for Wordle?
- There is no fifteen-letter input ceiling. You can enter longer racks, but the longest word in this ENABLE file has 28 letters and every result is a single word. For Wordle’s green, yellow and grey positional feedback, open the related Wordle Solver. That tool filters five-letter ENABLE candidates and does not claim to reproduce the official daily answer list.
