Unscramble WHY
WHY is itself a valid word in both Scrabble and Words With Friends, worth 12 points and 10 respectively on plain squares. Rearranged and shortened, the same 3 letters make 1 words in total, from 3 letters down to two. No other word uses all 3 letters, which makes it a safe rack to hold. The highest scoring option is WHY at 12 points in Scrabble. For what cause, reason, or purpose; on what account; wherefore; -- used interrogatively. See the Note under What, pron.
