Words with the letter V

The letter V is a valuable consonant in Scrabble, worth 4 points, making it one of the higher-scoring tiles. While it’s less common than some other letters, V can significantly boost your score when played strategically. Short words like va, vee, and vet are great for quick placements, especially in tight spaces. Because of its moderate point value, placing V on double or triple letter score squares can really amplify your points, even with shorter words.

To effectively use the letter V, focus on forming longer words such as vase, vote, vivid, or value that can take advantage of premium word squares. V pairs well with common vowels like A, E, and I, which can help you build flexible plays. Additionally, knowing two- and three-letter V words expands your options when the board gets crowded. With thoughtful placement and a good vocabulary, the letter V can become a powerful tool in your Scrabble strategy, helping you secure key points and control important areas on the board.
