Word list accuracy
Our word list is built on ENABLE, a public-domain lexicon, with the eleven modern two-letter additions applied on top. The about page sets out exactly what that includes and excludes.
It is close to the North American list and noticeably smaller than Collins, the list used by clubs and tournaments across the UK. Two things follow:
- A word appearing on this site is not a guarantee that it is valid in your game, under your rules, with your dictionary.
- A word missing from this site is not evidence that it is invalid.
Where a game matters, the official dictionary for that game is the only authority. We are a study aid and a fast way to see what a set of letters can make, not a rulebook.
Definitions
Definitions are taken from Webster's Dictionary of 1913, which is in the public domain. They are genuinely old. Some phrasing is archaic, some senses have shifted, and words that entered English after 1913 have no entry at all. Treat them as a helpful indication of meaning rather than as current lexicography, and use a modern dictionary where precision matters.
Fair play in games
Many games, clubs and tournaments prohibit outside assistance during play. Whether you may use a solver is a question about your game and the people in it, and it is not one we can answer for you. Using this site does not make you exempt from anyone else's rules.
No professional advice
Everything here concerns word games. Nothing on this site is educational, linguistic, legal or professional advice of any kind.
Corrections
If you believe anything on this page is wrong, or you are a rights holder with a concern about how a trademark is used here, please contact us. We would rather fix something quickly than argue about it.
