Words Help can give you an edge to beat your opponent when playing Words with Friends or any other Scrabble or Hangman games. It can also help you with cross word puzzles and in poetry to find rhymes.

Words Help searches the entire Scrabble dictionary for all the words that contain the characters you specify in the main box (use * for blanks).

Words Help allows you to search for words that have your characters in the main box and start with a pattern ( prefix box), end with a pattern (suffix box), and contain a pattern that exist anywhere in the word (anywhere box). See examples below.

Words Helps displays the result words from highest to lowest scores. The meanings of most words in the list can be displayed from the dictionary by a simple click on the word.

An "*" in the main box indicates a blank in scrabble while a "?" represents any character in the exact position which is useful for hangman games. Placing "?" in the main box switches the game to hangman.

You can also place a "?" in anywhere box. For example "A??B" in anywhere box filters the selections to those words that contain letters "A" and "B" separated by any two letters.
