What is Anagram Solver?

An anagram finder that rearranges the letters of a word or phrase to discover all valid English words that can be formed. Great for word games like Scrabble, crossword puzzles, or just having fun with language.

The solver checks your letters against a bundled English word list and returns every valid rearrangement, including subsets. Each result shows its Scrabble tile value, and a play that uses all seven or more tiles is marked as a Bingo — the 50-point bonus. Sort by length, by score (highest first) or A–Z, set a minimum and maximum length, or flip to Phrase mode for two-word anagrams like DORMITORY → DIRTY ROOM. Copy one result, copy the whole list, or click any word to look up its meaning in your own language.

How to use

1. Type a word or set of letters into the input field. Use ? for unknown letters (up to two). Spaces and other symbols are ignored.
2. Click Solve to list every valid play. Single-word results are grouped by length; switch to Phrase mode to find two-word anagrams that use all your letters.
3. Narrow results with the starts-with, ends-with and must-contain filters, sort by Scrabble score to surface the highest-value play, then copy any word or download the full list.

When to use

• Spotting the best play during Scrabble, Words With Friends or Wordfeud when your rack feels stuck.
• Hunting through a crossword clue's blank spaces with letters you suspect should fit.
• Picking a punchy username, project name or anagram pseudonym from a phrase you like.

Result

A Scrabble player has the letters 'LISTEN' on their rack. The solver finds anagrams including 'SILENT', 'TINSEL', 'ENLIST', and 'INLETS' — revealing the best scoring options.

FAQ

Does the solver include subsets, or only full anagrams using every letter?

Both. By default it returns every valid word that can be made from the available letters, with the longest matches first. Use the minimum length slider to hide short two- or three-letter results if you only care about full-rack plays.

Which dictionary is used to validate words?

An English word list of roughly 170,000 lowercase entries, similar to the open SCOWL corpus. It leans inclusive — most uncommon dictionary words, plurals and verb forms are recognised, though it isn't perfectly aligned with the official TWL or SOWPODS lists used in tournaments.

Can I solve anagrams in a language other than English?

Not yet. The bundled word list only contains English entries, so trying Spanish or French letters returns just the words that happen to also be valid English (e.g. `solo`). For other languages a dictionary-specific tool would be needed.

Why are some letters appearing in results that I didn't enter?

Usually because of a wildcard. Each ? in your input can stand in for any letter, so the solver fills the gap with whatever produces a real word. Without wildcards every result strictly reuses your letters, each one used no more often than you typed it. Unfamiliar words are almost always archaic dictionary entries — click `Look up definition` to confirm.

What's the maximum number of letters I can solve at once?

Practically up to about 12 letters before the result list becomes overwhelming. The algorithm itself scales fine beyond that, but the screen fills up with thousands of permutations that aren't useful for most word games.
