Words with the letter E

The letter E is the most commonly used vowel in the English language and is crucial in Scrabble, valued at 1 point. Because of its high frequency, E tiles are often easy to play but also highly sought after for forming a wide variety of words. Short words containing E, such as be, he, me, and we, are essential for quick plays, especially in tight spaces. Using E strategically on double or triple word score tiles can maximize your points despite its low individual value. Holding onto E tiles can help you stay flexible in your gameplay, allowing you to connect words and form longer, higher-scoring plays.

Effectively using the letter E often involves building off existing words by adding prefixes, suffixes, or plural endings. For example, adding E to hat to form hate or to rat to make rate can open up new scoring opportunities and board control. Because E is so common, knowing a variety of words that include this vowel allows you to adapt quickly to different board setups and keep your rack balanced. Mastering the strategic placement and timing of E tiles is key to improving your overall Scrabble performance.
