Words with the letter L

The letter L is a common and flexible tile in Scrabble, worth just 1 point, but it plays a key role in building both short and long words. Its low point value means it’s not a heavy hitter on its own, but it’s extremely useful for connecting other tiles and forming extensions. Words like la, lo, ill, and lid are great for quick plays in tight spaces. L is also frequently used in blends and suffixes, like -ly or -al, which makes it ideal for modifying or extending existing words to maximize your score.

Strategically, L shines when used to build longer words or hook onto existing ones. Adding L to a word like goa to form goal or to man to make mall can give you easy points while keeping your rack moving. Longer words like laugh, label, or loyal can score well when placed on premium word squares, especially if you’re able to form crosswords. Even though it’s a low-value letter, mastering the use of L can help you maintain flexibility and create scoring opportunities throughout the game.
